Manchester United are joining the battle for Juventus attacker Fede Chiesa.

The Italy international is up for sale at Juve as they seek to ease Financial Fair Play pressure.

Aston Villa, Newcastle and Liverpool are all in contact, with Villa having a €60m offer turned down in recent days.

Il Corriere dello Sport says United have now come forward after being frustrated in their pursuit of Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount.

United manager Erik ten Hag views Chiesa as an alternative and an offer is now being prepared for Juve's consideration.
