Man United transfer news: European giants have 'growing interest' in Jadon Sancho

Manchester United have reportedly offered out-of-favour winger Jadon Sancho to La Liga giants Barcelona this summer.

Sancho is facing an uncertain future at Old Trafford following a fallout with manager Erik ten Hag last season, which led to a loan switch to Borussia Dortmund in January.

The 24-year-old impressed for BVB, chipping in with three goals and three assists in 21 appearances to help the German club finish fifth in the Bundesliga and reach the Champions League final.

Dortmund are believed to be open to the possibility of re-signing Sancho this summer, but as things stand, the winger's career is at a crossroads and he is set to return to Old Trafford ahead of pre-season.

With Ten Hag allegedly close to extending his contract at Man United, it seems increasingly unlikely that Sancho will remain a Red Devils player for the 2024-25 campaign.

According to The Mirror, Man United's £50m asking price for Sancho is scaring off potential suitors, and the Red Devils are now willing to accept loan offers for the winger.

Sancho ready to push for Barcelona move?

Such a U-turn is understood to have caught the attention of Barcelona, and Spanish news outlet Sport claims that they have been offered the chance to sign Sancho on a temporary deal.

Barca's interest in loaning Sancho is said to be 'growing' and new head coach Hansi Flick, who has replaced Xavi in the Camp Nou hotseat, is believed to be an admirer of the Englishman, whose recent loan spell at Dortmund has impressed Catalan chiefs.

It has been claimed that Barcelona turned down the opportunity to recruit Sancho on loan in January before he joined Dortmund, but the La Liga giants are now set to consider a temporary deal this summer.

A loan move for Sancho would unsurprisingly appeal to Barcelona, who continue to struggle financially and may be required to sell first-team players to generate funds for new recruits.

Sport claims that Sancho would be willing to push through a move to Camp Nou, but an agreement over his salary must first be reached before talks can enter an advanced stage.

Barcelona and Dortmund are not the only European clubs interested in Sancho, as a recent report states that Serie A outfit Juventus have moved to the front of the queue for the Englishman's signature after cooling their interest in Man United's Mason Greenwood.
