The Juventus hierarchy touched base with a few clubs and agents during a recent trip to England, and they asked about Jadon Sancho on top of a few midfielders. The winger is on his way out after being excluded from the squad following an argument with coach Erik Ten Hag. He was banished in September. There’s no room to mend fences, Fabrizio Romano reports (via SOSFanta).
The negotiation isn’t ongoing at this stage, but the Bianconeri gathered intel about the terms. On the other hand, they could onboard him just on loan. Instead, Manchester United prefer waiting for offers to sell him outright and recoup part of what they invested.
Therefore, Sancho is more likely to end up in Saudi Arabia or return to Borussia Dortmund than to join Juventus. It’s still early to determine his future. The Red Devils had paid €85M to purchase him from the Bundesliga outfit in July 2021.
The English giants would have to significantly contribute to his massive wages for his move to Turin to materialize. He makes €20M annually, more than double their highest-paid players.
Our Take on Juventus and Sancho
There’s nothing wrong with testing the waters, but it’d take a big stroke of luck for the Bianconeri to sign him. It’s interesting that they are going after wingers considering their usual scheme. Massimiliano Allegri might be cooking up a tactical switch.
