Serie A champions Juventus are keen on signing Manchester United striker Robin van Persie this summer, according to reports.
The Dutchman has scored just 10 goals in an injury-hit season, and is approaching the final 12 months of his Old Trafford contract.
The Daily Mail reports that United are interested in offloading the former Arsenal forward and have encouraged Juventus to step up their interest, but a sale will only be sanctioned if United sign a replacement first.
Van Persie will turn 32 on the eve of next season.
