Juventus to Make Loan Offer for Jadon Sancho But Manchester United Have Conditions: Report

Manchester United are abundant to release Jadon Sancho on a permanent deal. Some top European clubs including Barcelona were reportedly keen to sign Sancho on loan in this summer transfer window, set to be closed in the coming few days. Paris Saint Germain earlier had attempted a swap deal, with Manchester United showing their interest in Manuel Ugarte. The potential deal, however, seems to have already collapsed. Now, Juventus have reportedly emerged as the front-runner to secure the signing of Sancho, who is almost confirmed to leave Old Trafford before the deadline day.

As per several media reports, the Serie A outfit has already held talks with Manchester United, discussing the possibility of the move. But The Athletic has claimed that Juventus may find it difficult to match the valuation of the 24-year-old winger.

Manchester United want to sell Sancho for a fee of £40 million and the amount has seemed to be a stumbling block for many of his suitors including Barcelona. The Spanish giants have already been in a tricky situation in terms of financial stability.

Like Barcelona, Juventus may also explore a loan deal for Jadon Sancho. It can get a green signal from Manchester United only if they can generate a significant profit. In this case, Juventus will need to cover the entire salary of Sancho apart from paying the loan fee. The deal may also include an option for a permanent buy, The Mirror reported.

Juventus is looking to rope in a couple of wingers this summer and their sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli is believed to be an admirer of Jadon Sancho. They can put forward a bid in the final days of the transfer window and may ask Manchester United to cover a part of Sancho’s annual wages.

The English forward was dropped from the Manchester United squad last September due to a rift with boss Erik Ten Hag. He was brought back ahead of the pre-season friendlies and played as a false-nine striker. He, however, was absent from the team, which featured in the Community Shield final against Manchester City. Sancho was also on the bench during the Premier League opener against Fulham which Manchester United won by one goal.
