Reports: Manchester United & Liverpool To Do Battle For £120m Star

Reports: Manchester United & Liverpool To Do Battle For £120m Star

Paulo Dybala & Cristiano Ronaldo

Despite Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's future at Manchester United still being up in the air, the club is reportedly pushing ahead with its transfer plans and has identified a £120 million target (R2.3 billion), but will have to fend off interest from bitter rivals Liverpool.

The Red Devils have identified Juventus superstar Paulo Dybala as their next marquee signing in order to challenge for the title next season, according to The Sun.

It has been claimed that United have already enquired as to how much the 25-year-old would cost, with the Bianconeri understood to be ready to sell the forward for £120 million.

Juve, though, are reportedly reluctant to let one of their key assets leave, and could therefore be keen on having Romelu Lukaku included in a potential cash-plus-player deal.

Tuttomercatoweb, meanwhile, has reported that Liverpool are also interested in Dybala, and are ready to rival United for the Argentine international, while previous reports suggested that Manchester City's Pep Guardiola is also a keen admirer of the player.

The player himself dropped a hint at the end of 2018 that he could leave Juve in the near future, and also revealed that he misses his former teammate Paul Pogba.

"I can't promise I will stay at Juventus forever. It doesn't depend on me, but I don't even want to say that this will be my last season here," he said, according to The Sun.

"I want to win everything now. Football's strange, you never really know what will happen in the future.

"But, right now, I do not say to myself, 'This is my last year and I am leaving'. I think of the present and try to win everything.

"Pogba's departure was a tough hit for me. He is a friend of mine, we were on very good terms on and off the pitch."

Dybala has scored nine goals and assisted another six strikes in 35 games across all competitions for the Serie A giants so far this season.
