Man Utd is discussing a second transfer with Juventus & # 39; during negotiations with Paulo Dybala

Manchester United and Juventus have reportedly been discussing the separate transfer of Mario Mandzukic during talks with Paulo Dybala.

The clubs are stuck in negotiations over a possible exchange agreement between Dybala and United group leader Romelu Lukaku.

Juventus sports director Fabio Paratici is in Manchester and is working on the terms of a transfer with United bosses.

However, this is not the only subject of discussion, as an agreement on Mandzukic is also in preparation – according to Football Italia.

Mandzukic only signed a new contract with the old lady in April, but it is believed that he would favor a move elsewhere to increase his chances of playing.

It is thought that Lukaku has already reached a personal agreement with Juve, worth more than £ 8 million a year, but Dybala has still not made a decision about his future, which is delaying him.

The Argentinian had to sit with his coach Maurizio Sarri after his training on Thursday, but the club allowed him to leave until August 5th.

Dybala is expected to meet Sarri on Friday, but the club is eager to reach a conclusion in order to progress.

If an exchange agreement involving both players was concluded, it would leave United running out of an attacking target man.

Lukaku often played this role at Old Trafford, with Solskjaer now thinking of Mandzukic as an option.

At 33, an agreement for the Croats should not break the bank, which should appeal to United, who remains focused on using the motto of his kitty on other targets.

The Red Devils are hoping to find an agreement on the ground from midfielder Sporting Lisbon's Bruno Fernandes before next week's deadline. The 24-year-old will play Sunday his last match for his current team.

United is also nearing a £ 9 million contract with Hannibal Mejbri, a 16-year-old Monegasque prodigy.
