‼️🔴 BREAKING: JHON LUCUMÍ AGREES TRANSFER — MANCHESTER UNITED TARGET SET FOR MOVE ‘WITHIN HOURS’! 🚨

Manchester United’s interest in Bologna defender Jhon Lucumí has taken a dramatic turn, with reports suggesting the Colombian centre-back is now closing in on a move away from Italy.

Lucumí has emerged as one of the defenders being monitored by Manchester United as Michael Carrick looks to strengthen his squad ahead of the new season. United are reportedly interested in the 28-year-old, whose contract situation at Bologna makes a summer transfer increasingly likely.

However, the latest development could be bad news for the Red Devils.

Reports indicate that Lucumí has agreed personal terms with Juventus, with the Italian giants currently leading the race for his signature. Bologna are understood to be demanding around €25 million for the defender.

Manchester United and Chelsea had both been linked with Lucumí, while Juventus have been pushing to win the race. United could therefore face a decision over whether to make a move quickly or allow the Colombian international to complete his transfer to Turin.

The defender’s situation is particularly interesting because his Bologna contract expires next summer, meaning the Serie A club has a strong incentive to sell rather than risk losing him for nothing.

For Manchester United, Lucumí would represent an experienced option at centre-back and could provide additional competition and depth in defence.

But with Juventus reportedly having reached an agreement with the player, United may now need to act fast if they genuinely want to bring him to Old Trafford.

The next few hours could be crucial. 👀🔴
