Manchester United are being linked with Inter Milan midfielder Frey Guarin.
The Mirror says Guarin has come close to leaving the Italian giants in recent weeks as they look to trim their wage bill.
Both Chelsea and Juventus have come close to deals for the talented 27-year-old midfielder recently.
News that Michael Carrick has suffered another injury blow could force the hand of Manchester United boss David Moyes.
And it could give him a chance to use want-away striker Javier Hernandez as part of any deal.
