Report: Manchester United, Juventus Contact Jordi Alba Amid Contract Rumours

Manchester United and Juventus have reportedly made contact with representatives for Barcelona left-back Jordi Alba with a view to a future transfer.

According to Mundo Deportivo (h/t Naveen Ullal of Sport Witness), the Blaugrana have left it "very late" to extend the contract of the Spain international, with his current terms poised to run out in 2020.

United and Juventus are said to have told Alba's agent they would be ready to "intervene" when the time is right.

It was reported by Sport (h/t Goal) recently that Barcelona are set to offer a contract to the defender, as they are concerned about interest in his services from the Premier League.
