Juventus have reportedly put up five players for sale as Andrea Pirlo gets ready to revamp his squad in the summer. The Italian would like to overhaul the Bianconeri's squad, and would need to get rid of a few players in order to do so.

According to the Daily Mail, Juventus are ready to part ways with Paulo Dybala, Aaron Ramsey, Alex Sandro, Adrien Rabiot and Rodrigo Bentancur in the summer in order to raise funds to sign new players.

The major decision to overhaul the squad was reportedly taken because of Juventus' capitulation this season. The Bianconeri are third in Serie A, ten points behind Inter Milan at the top of the table. The only silverware that Juventus look likely to win this season is the Coppa Italia.

Juventus are reportedly worried that Paulo Dybala will run down his contract at the club and leave as a free agent. The Argentinian's current deal expires at the end of next season and no progress has been made over a renewal.

According to Goal, Dybala is prepared to stay in Turin until his contract expires in order to leave as a free agent. Juventus are reportedly ready to part ways with the Argentine this summer, as they have lost patience with the forward due to his poor injury record.

Manchester United are reportedly in pole position to sign Dybala once his contract expires, but Juventus will look to try and sell the forward before that happens.
