Juventus have reportedly made inquiries for Jadon Sancho, with the winger’s immediate at Manchester United still doubtful.
According to Alfredo Pedulla, Juventus could look at Jadon Sancho as an attacking option in this window and have made an enquiry for the 24-year-old Manchester United star. The Bianconeri are keen to add a wide attacker, with the English winger among the many names being considered in Turin.
Juventus enquire for Jadon Sancho
Juventus are still in a period of transition with regards to their transfer activities. The arrival of Thiago Motta in the summer has made the club change their approach and style of play, which has resulted in some key players being deemed redundant, including Federico Chiesa.
Chiesa is into the final year of his deal, and Juventus have told him to find a new club as things stand. With the winger solving his future, the club are angling moves in the market, with multiple names being considered. Francesco Conceicao is a target, while Raheen Sterling of Chelsea is also being considered.
There are doubts whether the latter might be achievable, and there’s also some interest in 24-year-old Manchester United outcast Jadon Sancho. Juventus were unlikely to make a move for the winger earlier, but now they have made an enquiry on whether he is available.
Juventus might struggle to free up funds at this stage, although Chiesa’s sale might allow them some cash flow. Hence, they are looking for a formula to loan the said target, Sancho, and redeem his asking price next summer, which Manchester United might oppose.
The Jadon Sancho situation
Despite returning to the club after a short and successful loan spell at Borussia Dortmund, there are some doubts about his long-term future at Old Trafford. While he has resolved his differences with manager Erik ten Hag, Manchester United are willing to consider offers, with Chelsea one of those keen. At the same time, PSG may have walked away after a period of chasing the 24-year-old.
Hence, Sancho might be sold in this window, with Manchester United seemingly keen on a permanent solution. They will likely take a loss on their investment but could demand a fee of as much as £40 million or £50 million.
