3 Reasons why Dybala to Manchester United rumours may be true

Rumours suggest that Manchester United are ready to shatter the British transfer record once again to bring Juventus superstar, Paulo Dybala, to the 'Theatre Of Dreams'. Dybala joined the Old Lady of Italy in 2015 and, since then, has scored 52 goals for the Italian giants.

United Manager Jose Mourinho is a huge admirer of the Argentine who would be a great addition to his squad. But, getting his signature wouldn't be a walk in the park, even for the "Special One", as his former club, Real Madrid, is also looking to sign the diminutive attacker.

With a possible move on the card, we look into why Dybala might choose the Red Devils over Los Blancos and thus the impact he could bring to Old Trafford.

#1 Why United over Real Madrid

Dybala has found minutes hard to come by

If Paulo Dybala decides to leave Juventus it would be in search of first-team football as the playmaker only played 33 games last season in the Serie A, scoring 22 goals. Thus a move to Real Madrid will do him no good because of the stacked midfield that Real have, which already includes the likes of Kroos, Modric, Casemiro, Isco and Asensio among others.

So, it won't be easy to break into the Real Madrid first team, and even if the Juve talisman does eventually find a starting spot, the squad rotations could really reduce his game time. Young talents like Ceballos and Kovacic have unsuccessfully tried to do the same and are still waiting for their chance to shine as a certain starter.

But lack of minutes wouldn't really be an issue if Dybala comes to Man United because Mourinho is eager to bring in a player like him, whom he could trust week-in and week-out to deliver. Hence, he could easily be a regular starter for the club.

Midfield players like Mata, Lingard, Fellaini, Ander Herrera and Andreas Pereira have all been tried and tested in the no.10 role but no one has really impressed for United in that position. The options that the Portuguese has at the moment lack the attacking instinct and goal scoring ability that the Argentine attacker brings to the table.

Therefore, if Dybala is looking to play more regularly for advancing his career to the next level, a move to United is what the highly talented attacker may prefer in the end.

#2 The Pogba-Dybala connection

The duo shared a successful partnership at Juventus

Paul Pogba is a World Cup winner who has all the attributes of a complete midfielder. But at Man United, he lacks freedom when moving forward and a partner who complements his creativity. Both of these issues can be solved by bringing his old teammate, Dybala, to Man United.

"I must admit I miss Dani Alves and Pogba. Pogba is a friend of mine, we were on very good terms on and off the pitch," said the Argentine international when asked about the Frenchman after he left Juventus.

Moreover, Pogba was also found wearing Dybala's national team shirt during his post-World Cup holiday in Los Angeles, which reveals the strong bond the Frenchman still maintains with his former Juve teammate.

Also, striking a deal with Dybala is one thing that could finally persuade Pogba to stay at Old Trafford amidst the rumours of his links with Barcelona. The creative, skillful midfielder could also become United the perfect midfield partner for the French international and could be the answer to Mourinho's attacking problems at Man United.

#3 Man United look to sign big players

"At United, we have to sign big players, with experience", said Alexis Sanchez during an interview, but United failed to attract big names to the club during the summer transfer market.

Players like Godin, Maguire, Mandzukic and Perisic turned down a move to Old Trafford, which made the fans and the players doubt the credibility of the club as one of the best in the world. However, Dybala could be the instigator to restore faith amongst United fans.

Dybala could be United's most expensive signing

If Dybala once hits the ground running in England, it will only be a matter of time until other players also start taking an interest in representing Manchester United. A quality player like him in their ranks always brings a huge change to the system and could also open the door to a more attacking and intentful football which Mourinho's side haven't yet produced at the moment.
