Romelu Lukaku 'reaches agreement' as Paulo Dybala excused from training ahead of Man Utd transfer

Romelu Lukaku has reportedly agreed a €9m per year move to Juventus as he nears a Manchester United exit.

The Belgian striker has been keen to depart Old Trafford this summer and, according to Goal , he has now reached an agreement over personal terms with the Serie A giants.

Lukaku, who was linked with a move to Inter Milan earlier in the summer, is set to earn £8.22m per year in the deal, which equates to around £160,000-a-week.

However, the move could hinge on the decision of Paulo Dybala, with the Argentinian yet to be convinced by a move to Old Trafford as the two clubs look to push through a swap deal involving the £75m-rated stars.

Dybala, who returned to Turin on Thursday after his summer involvement in the Copa America, has been told not to report back to pre-season training until Monday.

He will need to undergo medical testing before starting his preparations for the new season but has been excused until next week in order to make a decision on his future.

Reports have suggested he will demand a huge £350,000-per-week wage to make the switch to Old Trafford, where he is wanted to support Marcus Rashford in Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's attack.

But reports in Italy have suggested he is open to a move given his unhappiness at his treatment by new manager Maurizio Sarri.

With Lukaku set on an exit, both clubs will likely be willing Dybala to decide his future lies at Old Trafford to avoid having to re-enter negotiations over the sale of the Belgian striker.

United have also been linked with Juventus stars Blaise Matuidi and Joao Cancelo after sporting director Fabio Paratici travelled to Manchester to discuss potential deals.
