Juventus nearing agreement for Jadon Sancho with Manchester United | OneFootball

Juventus are on the verge of finalising a deal to sign Jadon Sancho from Manchester United, according to Sport Mediaset.

The 25-year-old winger, who joined United from Borussia Dortmund in 2021, is close to bringing his turbulent Old Trafford chapter to a close.

Sancho and Juventus have agreed personal terms on a four-year contract worth around €6 million per year plus bonuses after his agent was reportedly in Turin earlier this week to meet with the Juventus hierarchy.

The Englishman has consented to a significant wage reduction to facilitate the move, which is a key factor given Juventus’ salary structure and financial constraints.

Juventus, on their part, are expected to share a portion of the compensation United will pay the player to smoothen his exit.

Juventus see Sancho as a versatile option on the flanks as they freshen their attack for the new Serie A campaign.

While the Old Lady’s initial bid fell short of United’s valuation, they are now prepared to raise their offer near €25 million, including add-ons.

Manchester United have been adamant they would prefer a permanent sale over another loan after Sancho’s loan at Chelsea last season failed to yield a permanent exit.

With less than 12 months remaining on his contract, albeit with the option for another year, United are keen to part ways with Sancho and recoup some of their €85 million investment.

For Sancho, the switch represents a much-needed opportunity to reignite a once-promising career that has stalled over the last couple of years.
