There are sensational reports in Italy that Manchester United are ready to fight Manchester City for the signature of Gigi Buffon.
Azzurri goalkeeper Buffon has become a Juve talisman, but the Bianconeri have admitted that they would have to consider a bid of around £50m.
According to Tuttosport, moneymen Manchester City aren't the only side looking to bring Buffon to Lancashire.
The Turin-based newspaper claims that United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has also set his heart on luring Gigi.
A bid of around £70m could persuade Juve to relinquish their grip on Buffon and a bidding war could start this summer.
There are also whispers that Spanish side Barcelona are planning to make a move.
