Jadon Sancho has decided his future

Juventus are increasingly optimistic about securing Jadon Sancho from Manchester United, according to multiple reports.

The English winger has become a pressing concern for United, especially after Chelsea backed out of a permanent deal.

The Blues had an agreement to buy Sancho for £25 million but chose to pay a £5 million penalty to avoid finalizing the move.

Chelsea’s decision has put INEOS, United’s new sporting leadership, under pressure to find a new destination for Sancho. Currently one of the club’s highest earners, Sancho is not part of manager Ruben Amorim’s plans.

United are actively seeking a buyer willing to pay a reasonable transfer fee while also absorbing his hefty salary. Juventus and Fenerbahce are now the two most serious contenders.

However, Italian journalist Giovanni Albanese claims the Turkish club has stepped back, believing Juventus are close to an agreement with United. Sancho has reportedly given his approval to the move, although his €10 million annual salary poses a challenge.

Nico Gonzalez to leave with Sancho’s arrival?

To accommodate the deal, Juventus are exploring the sale of Nicolás González. The club sees Sancho as a key piece in their future plans and are confident due to the player’s interest in the project.

United, on the other hand, are eager to clear room in their wage bill to bring in fresh attacking options.

The Premier League side has initiated talks with Brentford’s Bryan Mbeumo and is reportedly monitoring AC Milan’s Rafael Leão. However, these moves may hinge on the departures of both Sancho and Marcus Rashford.

The coming weeks could prove decisive as Juventus continue talks, aiming to finalize a deal that works for all parties.
