Transfer Talk: PSG Open Talks with Manchester United for Sancho

Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) has initiated talks with Manchester United over the potential transfer of winger Jadon Sancho, according to reports from ESPN. This move comes as a surprise to many, given the ongoing speculation surrounding the 21-year-old’s future at Old Trafford.

Sancho’s Time at Manchester United

Jadon Sancho joined Manchester United in July 2021 from Borussia Dortmund for a reported fee of £73 million. Despite the high expectations, Sancho has struggled to make an impact at Old Trafford, scoring just five goals in 51 appearances across all competitions.

PSG‘s Interest in Sancho

PSG has been monitoring Sancho’s situation at Manchester United and sees an opportunity to strengthen their attack with the addition of the English winger. The Parisians are looking to bolster their squad as they aim to win their first Champions League title.

Manchester United‘s Stance

Manchester United is open to selling Sancho but wants to recoup a significant portion of the £73 million they paid for him. The Red Devils are looking for a fee in the region of £60 million, which could be a stumbling block in the negotiations with PSG.

Competition for Sancho’s Signature

PSG is not the only club interested in signing Jadon Sancho. Chelsea and Newcastle United have also been linked with the winger, although it remains to be seen if they will make a formal bid.

What Next for Sancho?

With PSG opening talks with Manchester United, the next few weeks will be crucial in determining Jadon Sancho‘s future. If a deal cannot be reached, Sancho may have to wait until the summer transfer window for another opportunity to leave Old Trafford.
