Juventus are ready to pounce for unhappy Manchester United midfielder Nemanja Matic.

The Serbian midfielder had been benched by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer for their first four games of the season, making only one appearance.

The Sun says Matic — who made his first start of the season yesterday in the 1-0 win over Leicester — is out of contract next summer, although United have the option to extend it for a year.

And the 31-year-old's lack of action has put several clubs on alert — including Italian champions Juve.

Ironically, they are one of the clubs who have been linked with his United team-mate Paul Pogba in the last few transfer windows.
