Man Utd will replace Rooney with Juventus forward Dybala

Manchester United are lining up Juventus forward Paulo Dybala to replace Wayne Rooney.

According to Mundo Deportivo, United have turned their sights to the young Argentinean after Atletico Madrid's transfer ban was upheld, which effectively ended their pursuit of Antoine Griezmann.

With Rooney likely to look for a new home after his playing time diminished last season, Jose Mourinho has identified Dybala as the perfect replacement for the Englishman.

Chelsea are also interested in the 23-year old forward.
