Man Utd could lose three players to Juventus in January as club considers free transfers

Juventus are considering making a swoop for Manchester United stars David de Gea, Eric Bailly and Nemanja Matic in January.

Manchester United could end up losing three stars to Juventus as the Italian giants are reportedly considering opening talks with David de Gea, Eric Bailly and Nemanja Matic in January.

All three players are currently set to be out of contract next summer and according to Italian publication Gazzetta Dello Sport, the Serie A club are considering offering contracts to the trio in January, as they would be free to discuss terms with clubs outside of the Premier League.

Juventus have recently shown their ability to take advantage of the Bosman ruling, when they took Aaron Ramsey on a free transfer from Arsenal and Adrien Rabiot from Paris Saint-Germain this summer.

All three players' contracts are currently set to expire next June, however, United do have the opportunity to extend the contracts of De Gea and Matic for an additional 12 months.
