Serie A giants leading race to sign Man Utd attacker

Serie A giants Juventus and AC Milan are reportedly leading the race to sign Manchester United attacker Jesse Lingard.

The England international is expected to leave the Red Devils when his contract expires at the end of the campaign.

He has been linked with the likes of West Ham and Newcastle United in the past, but ESPN claims that he could move to Serie A.

Both Milan and Juventus are in regular contact with his representatives as they aim to secure his services on a free transfer.

Aside from Lingard, Edinson Cavani and Paul Pogba are also expected to leave on Bosman deals at the end of the season.

Cavani has been associated with a move to the Spanish top-flight. Sevilla and Valencia are deemed to have approached him.

Pogba, on the other hand, has been linked with a possible return to Juventus, but Paris Saint-Germain seem favourites to land him.

Les Parisiens are keen on pursuing another marquee French star and have earmarked Pogba as one of their prime transfer targets.
