Jadon Sancho, the talented winger of Manchester United, has been making headlines lately as he looks set to join the Italian powerhouse, Juventus. In a bold move, Juventus is reportedly offering Federico Chiesa to United as part of their bid to secure Sancho's services. This news comes after a tumultuous year for Sancho at United, following a falling out with manager Erik ten Hag.
Since last August, Sancho has been absent from the field, having been exiled by ten Hag. He then spent the second half of last season on loan at his former club, Borussia Dortmund. With United needing to balance their transfer budget, Sancho is one of the players they are hoping to sell for a decent fee in the upcoming weeks. However, with Juventus keen on bringing him to Turin, it seems that Sancho's preferred destination is now in Italy.
United, on the other hand, is reportedly looking for around £40 million for Sancho, a significant loss considering they paid £72 million to sign him three years ago. Meanwhile, Juventus is facing their own dilemma with Chiesa, one of their wingers. Despite having 18 months left on his contract, Chiesa's future under new manager Thiago Motta is now uncertain. While Juventus is said to be offering him a new contract, it would come with a lower salary.
Initially, there were rumors of interest from Roma in Chiesa, but those have since died down as Juventus explores other options. According to Gazzetta dello Sport, they are considering offering Chiesa to United in a swap deal for Sancho, who remains one of their top targets. It appears that Sancho is also in favor of this move, and ten Hag is seriously considering the proposal.
Chiesa has been a Juventus player since 2020, having joined the club permanently in 2022 after two successful seasons on loan from Fiorentina. Last season, the 26-year-old scored 10 goals and provided three assists for his team. While Juventus is considering the possibility of Chiesa joining United, they seem to be on the lookout for other attacking options as well. It is reported that Joshua Zirkzee has agreed to join United from Bologna, adding further depth to their attack.
As the transfer saga unfolds, fans and experts alike are eagerly waiting to see where Sancho and Chiesa will end up. One thing is for sure, this will be a significant move for both players, and it will be interesting to see how they perform in their new clubs.
