Manchester United attacker in advanced talks to join Juventus

Manchester United attacker Anthony Martial is reportedly in advanced discussions over a summer move to Serie A holders Juventus.

Martial struggled for regular gametime during the second half of the season following the arrival of Alexis Sanchez and his agent has since confirmed that a summer exit from Old Trafford could be on the cards.

According to Calciomercato, the 22-year-old has been identified as an alternative to Mauro Icardi to bolster the Bianconeri attack and the club are said to be in advanced talks regarding a summer deal.

It is added that United may prefer to sanction Martial's sale to an overseas club this summer but they will still demand at least £75m for the former AS Monaco ace.

Earlier in the year, Jose Mourinho indicated that he would not be spending on forward recruits during the summer transfer window but the potential departure of Martial may force him to enter the market for a replacement in the coming weeks.
