Juventus midfielder Arturo Vidal has reportedly passed a medical with Manchester United ahead of a move to the club.

United have been linked with the Chilean midfielder throughout the summer transfer window but the club reportedly wanted to check on Vidal's knee and ankle problems before approving a move.

According to El Mercurio, the checks took place in Chile, but it is not clear whether Juventus gave their permission for the medical.

Earlier in the week, Juventus managing director Giuseppe Marotta insisted that the club would like to keep hold of the midfielder.
