Paulo Dybala to resume Man Utd talks this morning and seal agreement over Romelu Lukaku Juventus swap transfer
PAULO DYBALA will resume talks with Manchester United today as he tries to thrash out his move to Old Trafford.
Dybala holds the key to a swap deal which would see Romelu Lukaku head to Juventus.
The 25-year-old failed to reach an agreement with United yesterday as he looks for a £350,000-a-week package to join Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side.
But his advisers will be back at the negotiating table with executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward this morning in an attempt to get things moving before the weekend.
Lukaku, 26, has all-but settled on a deal which would see him net around £160,000-a-week to join the Italian champions.
Now the only thing that needs to be ratified is for Dybala to decide if he is willing to make the move to the Premier League and settle on his financial package.
The Argentina striker flew back to Turin yesterday after an extended holiday, having played in the Copa America over the summer.
He held talks with Juve manager Maurizio Sarri to discuss where he would fit into his plans with the Serie A giants this season.
Sarri is understood to have made it clear to the forward that he would not stop him leaving - and told him to take the weekend to make up his mind.
Dybala was always due to report back for pre-season training next Monday, and he has been told to stay away until then while he sorts out his future.
The player's agent Jorge Antun has been in London this week to meet with Woodward at United's offices in the capital.
United are understood to be willing to hand Dybala a huge deal, although they have so far resisted matching his £350,000-a-week demands.

But the other issue is the fact they cannot offer Champions League football this season, and are asking the forward to buy into the project Solskjaer is embarking on.
In the meantime, Lukaku is now back training with United and took part in the club's media day on Thursday in case the transfer breaks down for any reason.
Inter Milan, who had been favourites to land the striker, are now watching in the background and have to decide if they are to revive their interest if Dybala rejects the switch.
