Man United 'come to agreement' with European giants over Jadon Sancho move

Manchester United and Juventus have reportedly come to an agreement over a move for Jadon Sancho, with the English attacker expected to move to Turin in the closing stages of the summer window.

There has been a host of speculation surrounding Sancho's future in recent weeks, and Chelsea have been heavily linked with a move for the ex-Manchester City youngster.

Raheem Sterling has been a part of the conversation with Man United, with a swap deal being discussed, but Juventus have now seemingly won the race for the 24-year-old.

According to journalist Fabrice Hawkins, an agreement has been reached over a loan deal for the 2024-25 campaign, with an obligation to make it a permanent switch next summer.

Hawkins claims that Sancho is keen to make the move to the Italian giants, so it is a deal that is expected to occur before the summer transfer window closes for business.

Juventus 'agree Sancho deal with Man United'

Sancho was able to patch-up his relationship with Man United head coach Erik ten Hag earlier this summer, with the two holding clear-the-air talks at the start of pre-season.

The pair had initially fallen out last September, with Sancho left out of the squad for a Premier League game against Arsenal due to poor performances in training, according to his manager.

Sancho insisted that was not the case in a public message, which led to be the breakdown of their relationship, and the Englishman was removed from the first-team picture before being sent on loan to Borussia Dortmund for the second half of the 2024-25 campaign.

The forward was involved in the Community Shield against Man City earlier this month, but he has been left out of the squad for both of Man United's Premier League matches this season.

Sancho deal suits both parties, as Man United move has not been a success

Sancho arrived at Old Trafford from Dortmund in July 2021, but he has struggled to make his mark for the Red Devils, only managing 12 goals and six assists in 83 appearances in all competitions.

Despite Ten Hag and Sancho moving on from their situation last year, a lot of damage was done at the time, and it was always going to be difficult for the pair to completely move past it.

A move to Juventus suits all parties, as the Old Lady will be signing a player who certainly has a lot of football ahead of him, and he could yet become one of the best attackers in European football.

Sancho will also have the chance to represent one of the most glamorous clubs in world football, while Man United will move on a player who is not a part of their long-term plans.

However, it remains to be seen whether Man United will have to cover part of Sancho's wages this season, with the forward believed to be on around £250,000 a week at Old Trafford.
