Juventus to sign Manchester United star on a free transfer?
Juventus will reportedly attempt to sign Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea on a free transfer.
The Spaniard has entered the final year of his contract with the Red Devils, and the club are yet to negotiate a renewal.
They have the option to extend his stay for 12 months, but his £350,000-a-week wages are proving a stumbling block.
The club's wage bill has hit record highs this term, and there are suggestions that De Gea could be allowed to leave.
Amidst this, Calciomercato report that Juventus are monitoring his situation, and could attempt to sign him on a free.
The Bianconeri are well known to land high-profile players on Bosman deals, and De Gea appears their latest target.
As things stand, the 31-year-old can finalise a pre-contract with a foreign club when the transfer window reopens.
De Gea has been a mainstay for United over the past 11 years, but the club seem to be looking for a more mobile keeper.
Aston Villa's Emiliano Martinez and Everton's Jordan Pickford are among shot-stoppers under their consideration.
