Former Manchester United player urges Mourinho to sign top Argentine star

- Former Jose Mourinho's assistant manager Ray Wilkins has urged Man Utd to go for Juventus star Dybala

- Wilkins insists Dybala will make United compete favorably with City for the title

- The Red Devils have been linked with players across Europe ahead of the January transfer window

Former Manchester United and Chelsea player Ray Wilkins has urged Manchester United to go all out and get Juventus star Paulo Dybala in January.

United's defeat in the Manchester derby means Pep Guardiola's men hold an 11-point lead over their neighbours in the battle for the Premier League title.

But as Mourinho prepares to strengthen his squad in next month's transfer window, Wilkins believes signing long-time target Paulo Dybala from Juventus would put their rivals under pressure.

"If United sign him [Dybala], good grief City will have to watch out," he told Sporting Bet.

"He's one of those skilful South American players that will light up the Premier League.

"If I was a head of scouting for a top six club, I would tell them to go to South America to scout small, skilful centre-forwards because these guys are becoming world class players like Dybala.

"He's a magical footballer, works hard on and off the pitch and would be a credit to the Premier League."

Dybala was heavily linked with a move to United last summer but the move did not materialize, he is a close friend of United star Paul Pogba and he could be instrumental if United plan to buy the Argentine.
