Manchester United 'make contact with Paulo Dybala's agent' as the Red Devils scramble to find a new striker after Cristiano Ronaldo's asked to leave the club... but 'they face competition from Tottenham, Inter and Napoli for the free agent'

Manchester United have approached Paulo Dybala's agent in an effort to sign the Argentine forward, according to reports.

The Red Devils were handed a shock on Saturday when star man Cristiano Ronaldo expressed his desire to leave Old Trafford ahead of next season.

The Portuguese striker is frustrated by the club's lack of transfer activity this summer and has reportedly disagreed with the decision to appoint three managers in quick succession following the sacking of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer last November.
