Juventus Demand Jadon Sancho Clarity Amid Ongoing Manchester United Negotiations

‎Juventus expects to find out within 48 hours whether their pursuit of Jadon Sancho is feasible.

‎Initial discussions between Juventus and Manchester United have gone smoothly, and two options are on the table. The simpler approach involves making a direct cash bid, while a player swap deal is also being explored as an alternative.

‎Sancho is reportedly interested in a move and is seeking a fresh start in Serie A. Although all parties appear open to the idea in principle, there are significant obstacles to overcome, primarily related to wages.

‎Sancho’s current salary at Manchester United surpasses what Juventus can realistically afford to offer.

‎Sources in Italy suggest their ceiling is around £160,000 per week, and while there have been quiet suggestions that Sancho might accept a pay cut, that remains unconfirmed. Unless that piece moves, it is difficult to see the rest falling into place.

‎United would prefer a cash deal and set an initial asking price of £25 million.

‎However, there is a feeling they could accept between £15million and £20 million to help facilitate a clean break.

‎It would be a significant financial loss on a player they signed for £73 million – but there is no way back for Sancho.

‎A swap deal is also a possibility. One player being considered is Douglas Luiz, who is highly regarded by Manchester United as they look to bolster their midfield.

‎Luiz is viewed as an experienced Premier League player capable of providing immediate impact.

‎With financial constraints in mind, there is interest in arrangements that could reduce cash requirements by including proven quality in the deal.

‎Juventus wants to move this week, if it is to happen, which means they need quick clarity on whether Sancho is a realistic addition or not.

‎Sancho will not be joining Manchester United’s first group of returning players for pre-season training this week.

‎The club has no plans to reintegrate him at this stage and is instead aiming to resolve his future as quickly as possible.
