Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing Juventus midfielder, Arturo Vidal. talkSPORT reports.

The Chile international scored in Juve’s 2-2 draw with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge and was part of the side which won Serie A at a canter last season.

He first established himself in Germany, spending four years playing for Bayer Leverkusen and helped the side finish second-place in the 2010/11 Bundesliga season.

Vidal has apparently attracted the interest of those at Old Trafford, who believe the midfielder could add a cutting edge in the centre of the park and be someone that could be a long-term replacement for Paul Scholes and Ryan Giggs.

As United missed out on Lucas Moura- who will join Paris St Germain in January instead, a move for Vidal appears even more likely, but Sir Alex Ferguson will have to dig deep as a deal could be worth a staggering £40million.

This is due to the fact that the player is under contract with the Turin club until 2016.
