United star could make London move
Manchester United’s Matteo Darmian is being linked with a sensational move to Chelsea.
A while ago he was being reported as a target for Barcelona, but according to Italian media, Calcio Mercato, Darmian is likely to be allowed to leave Old Trafford in the January window, with Antonio Conte one of a number of managers eager to sign him.
The Italy international is also interesting Serie A clubs Juventus and Napoli, both of whom could be ready to table a bid for the 26-year-old, who joined United last summer.
Reports earlier in the summer suggested Barcelona had been targeting Darmian as a replacement for Dani Alves, who is now at Juventus.
