Juventus 'interested in January move for Manchester United's Jadon Sancho'

Juventus are reportedly eyeing a January loan move for Manchester United outcast Jadon Sancho, who could then join the Bianconeri permanently for £60m next summer.

Juventus are reportedly willing to take Jadon Sancho off of Manchester United's hands in the January transfer window.

The former Borussia Dortmund man has now been ostracised from the group for over a month after publicly hitting out at Erik ten Hag over his omission from the squad to face Arsenal last month.

Ten Hag stated that Sancho's performances in training were not up to scratch, suggestions that were refuted by the winger, who instead claimed that he had been made a "scapegoat" in a bombshell social media statement.

While that post has now been deleted, Sancho remains in exile having supposedly refused to apologise to Ten Hag, and he is even said to be barred from all first-team facilities.

Sancho was once again absent from the squad for Saturday's 2-1 win over Brentford, and Ten Hag offered a curt response when asked for an update on the Englishman's situation.

Sancho remains under contract at Old Trafford for another three seasons, but with no resolution to the stand-off in sight, an exit in 2024 appears to be inevitable for the 23-year-old.

A return to Dortmund - where he contributed to 114 goals in 137 matches - has unsurprisingly been mooted, and Sancho is said to be keen on a Signal Iduna Park homecoming in January.

However, BVB allegedly harbour doubts about re-signing Sancho due to concerns over the player's timekeeping and sleep schedule, but he could be offered an alternative escape route.

According to The Sun, Italian giants Juventus want to bring the 23-year-old to Serie A midway through the season and could offer Man United £60m to make his stay permanent next summer.

There is a catch, though, as the report adds that Juve would require Man United to pay half of Sancho's £350,000k-a-week wages while he plies his trade under Massimiliano Allegri in Turin.

Nevertheless, the Bianconeri are hopeful of reaching an agreement under those terms given Man United's desire to offload the attacker, who would jump at the chance to reignite his career in Serie A.

Man United won a heated battle to prise Sancho away from Dortmund in 2021, paying £73m to secure the Englishman's signature, but he has only registered 12 goals and six assists in 82 matches.

The former Manchester City youngster spent a considerable amount of time away from the first team last season to work on physical and mental struggles, and he failed to score or assist in three Premier League games this term before being dropped.

Alongside Sancho's absence, Man United also coped without Antony for a few weeks as the Brazilian contested allegations of domestic violence from three women, which he denied.

However, the Brazilian has returned to the squad after submitting for police questioning and came off the bench as a second-half substitute in Saturday's dramatic win over Brentford, where Scott McTominay scored two injury-time goals to cancel out a Mathias Jensen opener.
