Cristiano Ronaldo Urges Juventus to Sign Romelu Lukaku ¶
Italian giants Juventus are in talks with Manchester United over the transfer of Romelu Lukaku, with Cristiano Ronaldo reportedly urging the club to go all out for the Belgian striker.
According to reports, Juventus have offered Manchester United Paulo Dybala, Mario Mandzukic, and cash in a sensational swap deal that would see Lukaku move to Turin.
However, Dybala's massive wage demands appear to be an obstacle for the deal to see the light of day.
Despite ongoing interest from Inter Milan, Juventus have emerged as clear favourites to sign Lukaku, who would work well as the central pivot in a 4-3-3 set up.
Meanwhile, Dybala's agent and brother Mariano has since jetted to London for talks with United over the transfer of the Argentine.
