Manchester United to force Italian giants to sell their best player
By Bence Bocsak
Manchester United are set for a busy summer and their activity could impact a star player playing for one of Italy’s biggest clubs.
The upcoming summer transfer window could be one of the most important transfer windows for Manchester United in their recent history.
The Red Devils are at a crisis point. The years since Sir Alex Ferguson’s departure have not treated the club kindly.
They are sinking further and further away from the pinnacle of the Premier League and into an abyss.

The current squad are nowhere near good enough.
United desperately need to reinforce and bring in signings who will have the ability to transform the team.
If they fail to do so, the club risk being in danger of lingering in mediocrity for a very long time.
No one wants that at Manchester United, let alone Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
However it seems the Norwegian is going to face a major stumbling block in his mission.
The club’s star player, Paul Pogba, has made his desire clear about wanting to leave Old Trafford. His departure will leave a gaping void which will need to be filled and Solskjaer will be forced to sign yet another reinforcement.
Paul Pogba’s departure however might not just hurt United, it could also hurt his biggest suitors in Juventus.
According to the Daily Mail, Juventus would have to ‘sell off’ a player in order to fulfil their financial fair play criteria before sanctioning a big money move for Paul Pogba.
The report claims claims that the Italians tried to use Paulo Dybala in a swap deal for the Frenchman last summer.
Juventus might be tempted to do the same again.
And the Italian club’s loss could be Manchester United’s gain. Paulo Dybala is an excellent attacking player and has been a terrific performer in the Serie A and the Champions League over the last couple of seasons.
At 26 he stills has plenty of time left in his prime and he could become the striker Ole Gunnar Solskjaer desperately needs.
What do you think, would you take a swap deal of Paulo Dybala plus cash for Paul Pogba?
