Juventus are plotting a sensational return for Paul Pogba as the negotiations ramble on with the Frenchman entering the final months of his contract, according to reports.
Although should he move back to Turin, it would see him earn £2m a year less than he currently does at Old Trafford.
The Frenchman signed for the Reds in 2016 after shining for Juventus during his time in Serie A and his current deal is set to expire at the end of the season.
Manchester United have been buoyed this season by the arrival of a number of big names including the homecoming of Cristiano Ronaldo as well as the additions of Raphael Varane and Jadon Sancho.
The 28-year-old shone for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side this season including four assists in the opening day demolition of rivals Leeds United, prior to the break, he had provided on seven occasions in as many matches.
Gazetta Dello Sport via the Daily Mail report that Massimilliano Allegri's side will offer him £10m-a-year but will have to offload Adrien Rabiot and Aaron Ramsey in order to pave way for the move.
American international Weston McKennie could also be shown the exit should Pogba arrive.
Elsewhere, following their long-awaited takeover, Newcastle United are reportedly keeping tabs on Jesse Lingard.
Lingard has found it hard to establish a starting place in the United XI and has frequently featured off the bench this season. In the Champions League, his appearances as a substitute have already been down and up, a costly mistake led to Young Boys snatching the winner on the opening day whereas a cute flick into the path of Ronaldo secured the winner in the following match against Villarreal.
The Magpies previously wanted him on loan last January but he opted for a move to West Ham, where he flourished, but the Telegraph reports that they will be looking to bolster their squad with the addition of the attacker.
Following Mike Ashley's sale of the club, Lingard could be swayed by the attractive ambitions that new owners Public Investment Fund (PIF) have in mind.
Donny van de Beek is another Manchester United outcast struggling to get minutes under their belt under the Norwegian.
The Dutchman saw his proposed deadline day loan move to Everton turned down and has since been left to watch on from the stands.
However, his fortunes could change in the next window as underfire Barcelona boss Ronald Koeman looks to reinvigorate his midfield with the signings of Tanguy Ndombele and Van de Beek.
That is according to Spanish outlet Sport who say that Koeman could opt to put trust in his fellow countryman and make a move which would see him lineup alongside international teammate and Ajax academy graduate Frenkie De Jong.
Marcelo Brozovic and Frenck Kessie are also touted as targets.
