Matteo Darmian's agent 'meets with Juventus'

The agent of Manchester United defender Matteo Darmian reportedly met with Juventus on Wednesday afternoon to discuss a move for his client in this summer's transfer window.

Darmian has been strongly linked with a return to Serie A, having struggled for first-team football at United last term.

The 28-year-old made 28 Premier League appearances during his first season at Old Trafford, but featured in just eight league fixtures for the 20-time English champions during the 2017-18 campaign.

According to Calciomercato, Juventus chiefs met with Darmian's agent on Wednesday with a view to completing a move ahead of the 2018-19 campaign.

However, it is understood that Juventus are only willing to pay £10m for the Italian, but United want a figure in the region of £17m.
