Football Express News understands that Arturo Vidal has told Juventus that he wants to join Manchester United this summer.

    The Chilean midfielder has been heavily linked with a move to Man United this summer after impressing for Juventus in the Serie A in recent seasons and for his country.

    Negotiations between both clubs over a move have gained significant ground in recent weeks, although Juve officials have fiercely denied such talk.

    United boss Louis van Gaal gave the Turin giants a Sunday evening deadline for a decision, which was pushed through to Monday after the emergence of another interested club, thought to be Bayern Munich.

    Doubts over Vidal’s future began to grow with the midfielder holding a double meeting with Juve officials on Monday morning/afternoon.

    But, we now understand that he has told the Italian champions that he does want to join United this summer and would happily accept terms with the Premier League giants.

    A fee is yet to be agreed between both teams, but United’s offer of £39.7m is still on the table.
