Manchester United could be ready to swap Paul Pogba for Aaron Ramsey.
The Welshman joined Juventus from Arsenal on a free transfer last summer and, after a difficult start in Turin, was just beginning to find his feet with the Serie A champions when the Italian league was suspended.
Reports suggest that whilst the current league leaders want to keep him, they would be prepared to let him go If it meant that they could secure one of their main transfer targets in Pogba.
The French World Cup winner has been consistently linked with a move away from Old Trafford in the summer, and Juventus are keen to bring him back, having enjoyed great success in his first time there, winning the league times in each of his four seasons.
If the pair do end up in a swap, it is likely to be the sort of deal that becomes the norm this year, with the financial crisis caused by the coronavirus pandemic severely restricting the amount of money there is to spend on transfers.
