This Dybala business seems to have completely ramped up out of no where. The BBC is reporting Dybala's manager is currently in England to discuss.

If we can somehow manage to swap Lukaku for Dybala then I'll be absolutely stoked. I'd also be very concerned if I were a Juve fan.

Sky Sports News saying a deal has been reached between United and Juve. Now up to United to reach agreement with Dybala. 

This one both excites me and worries me. This is the type of signing we were said to be moving away from. I'm not convinced he really wants to come to United. If we sign him, I'm a little worried we could have another Falcao/di Maria/Sanchez situation. But I'll admit the upside is really exciting.

Fair points. For me, he's going to be an upgrade from Lukaku. If we can make sure we keep his wages in check then we shouldn't fall into the same situation as he'll be a lot easier to to offload and won't piss everyone in the squad off.

I don't understand why Juve and Sarri would want Lukaku at all. My best theory right now is that this is all an elaborate 3-way trade where Lukaku goes to Inter, Icardi goes to Juve, and Dybala goes to United.
