Manchester United have ended talks with Paulo Dybala because of the Juventus striker's wage demands.

United entered talks with the Argentine, 25, as part of a proposed swap deal involving Romelu Lukaku, 26.

However, they were dubious about whether Dybala wanted to join them and viewed his wage demands as excessive.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has targeted young, hungry players and United officials concluded further bids for Dybala would be a move away from that.

Dybala joined Juventus from Palermo in 2015 and scored 10 times for the Italian side last season, including the only goal in the first leg of the Champions League group match against United at Old Trafford in October.

Uncertainty remains over the future of Belgium international Lukaku, who joined the Red Devils from Everton for an initial £75m in July 2017 and scored 12 league goals last term.

Last month United rejected a 60m euro (£53.9m) bid from Juventus' Serie A rivals Inter Milan for the forward.

But Solskjaer says he has "no doubt" France midfielder Paul Pogba - who has also been linked with a move - still wants to play for the club.

Conte 'very hopeful' over Lukaku
Inter boss Antonio Conte revealed he was still hopeful of signing Lukaku.

"We continue to work on it in the best possible way," he said after his team's pre-season friendly draw at Tottenham.

"I understand there are some gaps that need to be filled but at the moment I am very hopeful that this will happen."

Analysis
The emergence of young players such as Mason Greenwood during pre-season, allied to the presence on Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Alexis Sanchez in the United squad means it is by no means certain a replacement will come in even if Lukaku does leave.

United are continuing to look at potential signings but have ruled out a move for Sporting Lisbon midfielder Bruno Fernandes, despite being linked with him for much of the summer.

Lol..



After lukaku learnt how to speak Italian

Lol

Lies He is coming very soon

Ok

Dybala would never have fit in at united as was the case with di maria..

Manchester United have successfully signed the transfer Window

�� jokers

Juventus just want to prevent Inter Milan from signing him. They may end up pushing the deal to final day and then dumping Lukaku and Man U. Dybala is not the kind of player Man u needs at the moment

logon599:
I never thought Dybala would fit into Man Utd team.

Thoughtier.

You people can thought for Africa


So why didn't you say it beforehand?

Wait?

Money don dey finish?

This is no time to have sense.

If you pay Sanchez 500k, then Dybala is right to request for more...

Them never finish with this deal



My poor man u.
I hope for hope come 11th

Sell Alexis to fund his wage.

you united fans crying solos

Dybala should kiss my ass
Lukaku is an overweight buffalo
Pogba is an egocentric overhyped bigot that should take the next exit door
Manutd is a confused lot and have soiled their rep greatly thereby looking like a scorn that every player finds easy to piss on.
I'm outta here

Manutd CEO Woodward is very confused.

He agreed to pay over 300,000 for Alexis Sanchez but he declined same for Dybala

Well I can't blame him, perhaps he thought what happened to Sanchez may happen to Dybala
