Manchester United have been looking to replace legendary Paul Scholes for a long time now and have failed.
The Red Devils are still in search of a complete midfielder and Juventus star midfielder Arturo Vidal fits the bill.
Louis van Gaal has been chasing the Chilean international for quite some time but the 27 year old star stayed put.
However, according to latest reports, Manchester United are all clear to finally sign Vidal for a bargain price of just 20 million Euros.
Vidal has scored 6 goals and provided 2 assists in 28 appearances for the Italian champions Juventus this season.
Capable of playing anywhere in midfield, Vidal is the man to solve Manchester United’s midfield conundrum once and for all.
Juventus are frustrated with his dip in form and as per the provided link, the Serie A side are ready to accept a €20m offer for the former Bayer Leverkusen star.
The price tag mentioned is very low as compared to what it was just a few months back when Manchester United were looking to sign him in the winter window.
At that time, Metro reported that United would have to splash €48m to secure his services. Hence €20m is a huge bargain and United must do all to seal his signing swiftly as rivals Manchester City are also interested as well.

Someone needs to look again at the statistics for Vidal!
You say – “Vidal has scored 18 goals and provided 6 assists in 46 appearances for the Italian champions Juventus this season” BUT the facts are: he has played in just 28 matches, scored just 6 goals and made just 2 assists THIS SEASON!!!
Still why let the truth get in the way of making a story more dramatic?
