The Italian club confirmed this week that they have received early offers for Dybala, although declined to reveal whether United were among the clubs to contact them.
“There are some proposals, there is some interest, but we wait for concrete action so we can then decide calmly," club vice-president Paval Nedved said.
The Sun have since reported that Juventus have moved ahead of Inter Milan in the race to sign Lukaku and are willing to offload Dybala to make that happen.
Reports in Italy have claimed Dybala has sought clarification from new manager Maurizio Sarri this summer over what his role will be in 2019/20, triggering interest from clubs elsewhere who are open to moving for him if he is open to a move elsewhere, with Paris Saint-Germain and Tottenham also mooted as potential destinations.
United are meanwhile reportedly mulling over a £142m (€160m) offer from Real Madrid for Paul Pogba.
The French midfielder has already declared his desire to move this summer and take up a new challenge.
And now Sport report a huge offer has been sent from Los Blancos, with Zinedine Zidane eager to add his compatriot.
United have already made moves to replace Pogba, agreeing terms with Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.
The Mail claim the Serbian has struck a deal over a €6m (£5.4m) salary, while Lazio are waiting for a €90m (£81.6m) offer, according to Gazzetta.
United have already submitted €75m (£68mm) plus €15m (£13.6m), the report adds, but the Italians want the full fee guaranteed.
United target Bruno Fernandes appears to be off, after crying at the final whistle after a 2-1 loss to Valencia. But remains to be seen whether the Portuguese midfielder is an alternative to Milinkovic-Savic or an additional target.
Sevilla star Wissam Ben Yedder has handed United a boost by snubbing a move to China.
The France international has knocked back a move to Beijing Synobo Guoan and L’Equipe maintain he is waiting for United or Paris Saint-Germain to step up their interest.
