Luke Shaw could be forced out if Man United swap Mkhitaryan for £50m Juventus star
Manchester United are plotting a move that would see Henrik Mkhitaryan move to Juventus in exchange for Alex Sandro.
According to The Sun’s Alvise Cagnazzo, the Italian giants would rather make an exchange in the summer but would reluctantly sell over the winter transfer window without any exchange should a £50 million offer come their away.
Per the source, United want to offer Mkhitaryan for Sandro instead of a cash bid.
Should the transfer go ahead it would put Luke Shaw’s already tenuous position at the club in jeopardy.
Shaw has already fallen out of favour with Mourinho and has struggled for playing time.
