Serie A giants Inter Milan may look to sign 25-year-old English playmaker Jadon Sancho from Manchester United in the summer transfer window.
According to a report by TEAMtalk, Jadon Sancho is the subject of interest from Inter Milan. The Serie A giants are keen on reinforcing their offensive unit by signing a versatile playmaker in the summer transfer window. So, the 25-year-old Manchester United flop has emerged as a target for the Nerazzurri.
The Italian heavyweights are “still in the market for a skilful attacker” and have begun considering the Englishman as a player to target if he has still not found a new destination in the final days of the summer transfer window. However, a move will depend on Inter Milan’s ability to sign an alternative in the coming days.
Jadon Sancho and his frustrating attitude
Jadon Sancho continues to frustrate Manchester United despite having no future at Old Trafford. One of the worst signings in Manchester United’s storied history since arriving from Borussia Dortmund in July 2021, the 25-year-old barely made his mark in his first few seasons with the Premier League club before a bust-up with Erik ten Hag sealed his fate.
The English international showed flashes of brilliance during his loan spell with Chelsea before a permanent deal failed to materialise this summer. Sancho managed only five goals and ten assists in 41 appearances across all competitions, and he has returned to Manchester United. However, his stock in the market remains high, with Inter Milan among the prospective suitors vying for his signature in the summer transfer window.
Will Inter Milan sign Sancho?
Inter Milan’s interest in Jadon Sancho is perplexing. While the Serie A giants are embarking on a new project under Cristian Chivu, the newly appointed manager continues to prefer the 3-5-2 formation that Simone Inzaghi employed during his spell with the Nerazzurri. So, Sancho may not have a natural berth in Chivu’s side unless he changes his role.
While Sancho can theoretically play as a striker or an attacking midfielder, it may be a case of trying to fit a square peg in a round hole. Nevertheless, Sancho’s decision to snub AS Roma has piqued the attention of Inter Milan, and the Nerazzurri will explore a late move if the 25-year-old Englishman is still at Manchester United.
However, a deal will depend on Inter Milan’s inability to sign an alternative before that. Meanwhile, Sancho has also rejected other clubs, including Besiktas. So, with the English playmaker troubling Manchester United, it will be interesting to see what the future holds for him.
