Manchester United may soon part ways with Victor Lindelof, as the center-back has drawn interest from Juventus ahead of the January transfer window.

Lindelof, whose contract at Old Trafford ends after this season, has only made four substitute appearances in the Premier League this term, signaling his time at United may be winding down.
Since his arrival from Benfica in 2017, Lindelof has been a consistent presence in United’s defense, but his future under new manager Ruben Amorim appears uncertain.
Italian outlet TuttoSport reports that Juventus, facing an injury crisis with defenders Gleison Bremer and Juan Cabal, are targeting Lindelof as a potential solution.
Should Juventus make a bid, United would need to weigh the benefits of receiving a modest transfer fee against the drawback of reducing their defensive options for the remainder of the season.
Lindelof’s departure could also free up salary space for United to potentially pursue reinforcements.
Juventus has other candidates in mind, including Feyenoord’s David Hancko and PSG’s Milan Skriniar, but Lindelof’s experience and availability in January make him an appealing option.
Alongside Lindelof, other United players with expiring contracts include Christian Eriksen and Jonny Evans, while Harry Maguire’s contract also ends soon, though the club has an option to extend it.
