Manchester United have had a ray of hope about selling Jadon Sancho at a good price. Before that, Chelsea decided not to buy the English striker and paid the "Red Devils" a fine.
Fenerbahce has been linked with Sancho, who struggled at Old Trafford since moving from Dortmund in 2021. However, coach Jose Mourinho's team is not the only club associated with Sancho.
According to the British press, Juventus is now ready to test Man United's determination. Serie A club is looking to add to the squad after appointing Igor Tudor as coach, and Sancho is considered the top target.
Juventus sporting director Damien Comolli has received positive signals from Sancho. The deal is expected to be finalized next week, when Comolli returns to Europe to complete the procedures.
If everything goes well, Sancho will officially debut for Juventus next week. This is considered a good opportunity for the English player to revive his career after turbulent years at Old Trafford. Sancho needs to play more often as the 2026 World Cup is approaching.
Juventus have had a difficult 2024-2025 season, but Tudor can still help them win a ticket to the Champions League after replacing Thiago Motta in March. The Bianconeri have also reached the round of 16 of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, where they will face Real Madrid.
Fenerbahce are said to have hoped to reach a deal to sign Sancho for just £15 million. However, with Juventus' participation, things will change completely.
Chelsea's Sancho loan deal included an obligation to buy the player for about 25 million pounds. However, they also had the option to pay £5 million to escape that obligation and The Blues did so. The 25-year-old scored in the Europa Conference League final last season and helped Chelsea win the championship.
Sancho had a serious conflict with coach Erik ten Hag at Man United after a public scandal in September 2023. Sancho was left out of the squad for 4 months, having to train and change clothes separately at Carrington before being loaned to Dortmund in January 2024.
Now, if Man United can sell Sancho, it will help them increase their transfer budget and free up their salary fund. Amorim's side have completed their first contract this summer, when Matheus Cunha joined Old Trafford for £62.5 million from Wolves. And it is expected that the "Red Devils" will have many other new contracts.
Bryan Mbeumo is also set to move to Old Trafford for the same amount as Cunha. There will clearly be no place for Sancho at Old Trafford as Man United continuously adds an attack.
Like Sancho, both Marcus Rashford and Antony ended last season on loan. Both are expected to leave this summer, alongside Alejandro Garnacho, as Amorim wants to streamline the squad.
