Manchester United have already started their search for key players to strengthen their squad this summer.
With the club having had their worst ever season in the Premier League and prepping for their first full run with Ruben Amorim, several charges are expected to be made.
United have already identified Burnley goalkeeper James Trafford as a replacement for problematic Andre Onana, whilst Liam Delap is at the top of their shortlist of attacking targets.
However, The Red Devils are also in need of some midfield reinforcements too with Christian Eriksen coming to the end of his contract and the club wanting to cash in on Casemiro.
Well, they may have found a curveball option, with a proven Premier League midfielder wanting to return to England at Old Trafford.

Douglas Luiz wants a move to Manchester United
Italian outlet, Corriere dello Sport, has reported that Juventus midfielder, Douglas Luiz is looking to return to the Premier League after a failed stint in Serie A.
The 26-year-old proved himself with Aston Villa, grabbing 22 goals and 24 assists in 204 games, becoming a vital member of Unai Emery’s squad.
However last summer, he moved to Juventus for £45 million, and is now looking for a return only a year later.
With only 22 appearances all season, the Brazilian isn’t happy with his game-time, wanting a move back to England with either Manchester United or rivals Manchester City due to their pedigree.
Luiz still has four years on his contract though which is set to expire in 2029, with Juve wanting £34 million for him if they are to part ways.
With United’s financial pressures however, and with Kobbie Mainoo, Manuel Ugarte, Bruno Fernandes and rising star Toby Collyer in the ranks, it’s hard to imaging they’d be happy to met Juve’s valuation for Luiz.
