Manchester United want Paulo Dybala from Juventus in £60m deal and are confident of completing swoop next summer

MANCHESTER UNITED are reportedly confident of landing Juventus star Paulo Dybala next summer.

The Daily Star claims Jose Mourinho has made the Argentine striker his top transfer target.

And after appointing former Juve scout Javier Ribalta as his new chief headhunter, the Special One reckons United are in pole position to secure Dybala’s signature.

The 24-year-old has become one of Europe’s top strikers in recent years and was recently handed Juventus’ coveted No 10 jersey.

Dybala is also said to be attracting interest from Barcelona and Bayern Munich.

But United could be the side to emerge victorious in a brutal transfer battle.

Dybala remains close friends with former Juve midfielder Paul Pogba.

And the report adds that Mourinho is even prepared to offload Henrikh Mkhitaryan in order to make room for Dybala in his star-studded squad.

The Portuguese tactician is also believed to have offered Marouane Fellaini a new contract.

He rejected a two-year deal in September and could be looking to leave Old Trafford on a free transfer at the end of the season.
