Inter Milan are ready to steal a march on Manchester United for Paulo Dybala


Inter Milan are trying to ruin Manchester United's hopes of completing a swap deal with Romelu Lukaku and Paulo Dybala by making their own offer, according to reports.
United have held talks with the agent of Dybala in London but he is yet to decide on any deal

According to Sportsmail exclusively revealed on Wednesday that Cristiano Ronaldo has blessed Juventus' move for Lukaku should a swap deal with United be favoured by the Italian champions.

The Portuguese superstar values Lukaku's appetite for sacrifice and is happy to play wide of the Belgian marksman next season.

Juve see Lukaku as a real market opportunity as well as one who will work well as the central pivot in a 4-3-3 system.

The Italian champions are reshaping their forward line and see Lukaku's relative youth at 26 as a vital ingredient for their future plans with Mario Mandzukic and Gonzalo Higuain over 30.

They consider him as a young Mandzukic due to his strength and ability to find the back of the net.
Manchester United have been prepared to sell Lukaku if their valuation of £75m is met.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has decided Marcus Rashford will be his main centre-forward and does not wish to stand in the way of Lukaku's moving on to further his career in Italy.

Dybala's agent and brother Mariano flew into London for talks with United bosses on Tuesday night as a move grows closer. 

But given United have just one week left to conclude their transfer business given the window closes for Premier League clubs on August 8, they are running out of time to get the deal concluded.

There is the possibility that Lukaku could remain at the club this summer and they are also insistent that any deal for Dybala is not dependent on Lukaku going to Turin.

Inter's pitch is an audacious one given Conte previously stated that Dybala would never join the club 'out of respect' for Juventus fans.

Dybala holds all the cards on any move and he is yet to make a decision on his future as he is due for talks with Juventus boss Mauricio Sarri on Thursday.

United have been told by Dybala's representatives that they are looking for a significant increase on the £6.5million per year he takes home after tax in Turin with a wage of £350,000-a-week mooted. 

Dybala wants £9m a year after tax at Old Trafford which would launch him into the highest tier of Premier League earners alongside Mesut Ozil at Arsenal.

This is more than United were hoping to pay although it is early in the talks about personal terms and the difference is not expected to block the transfer.

Sarri is keen to add Lukaku's strength, athleticism and experience to his attack in the hope it will provide more freedom for Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Belgian international is still only 26 and has been scoring goals in top-level football for a decade.
