Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho has been linked with a move away from the club in recent weeks.
The 23-year-old has fallen down the pecking order at the old Premier League club and he needs to leave in search of regular game time. Journalist Rudy Galetti has now claimed that Juventus have opened talks with the winger’s representatives regarding a January transfer.
It will be interesting to see if Manchester United are willing to sanction his departure in January. The winger is no longer a key player for Erik Ten Hag. It makes sense for both parties to go separate ways. Sancho needs to resurrect his career with regular football at another club and Manchester United will be able to invest the proceeds on another player.
Juventus need to bring in more quality in the final third and Sancho will add pace and flair to the side. If he manages to regain his confidence and sharpness, he could be one of the best attackers in the Italian league. The England international was regarded as one of the best young players in the world during his time at Borussia Dortmund.

The transfer to Manchester United has clearly not worked out for him. It is evident that he needs a fresh start and a move to Italy could be ideal for him at this stage of his career. He will get to play regularly ahead of the European championships and Sancho could cement his place in the England squad if he manages to impress in Italy.
Juventus will be hoping to sign him for a reasonable price in the coming weeks. Manchester United paid £73 million for the winger and they will be fully aware of the fact that they will not be able to recoup that kind of money for him after his performances since joining the club. It would be wise of the Premier League side to cut their losses on him and move on now.
Meanwhile, Sancho is still quite young and he has plenty of time to get his career back on track. Juventus could help him get back to his best once again.
