Juventus Make £25m Move for Man Utd Winger

Italian Giants Explore Jadon Sancho Transfer
Juventus have stepped up their interest in Jadon Sancho, holding initial discussions over a possible move for the Manchester United winger. The Serie A club have sounded out what a potential deal could look like, as they weigh up a formal approach during the summer transfer window.

Sancho, 24, remains on the fringes at Old Trafford following his public fallout with Erik ten Hag last season, which saw him exiled from the first team and sent out on loan to Borussia Dortmund in January. His time in Germany helped him rediscover some rhythm, but there is currently no pathway for him back into the United setup.
Napoli Monitor Situation but Face Financial Hurdles
Juventus are not alone in their pursuit. Napoli have also expressed interest in the England international, but any concrete move would likely require Sancho to accept a significant reduction in wages. The forward is currently one of United's top earners, with a salary package that presents a major stumbling block for interested clubs outside the Premier League.
Napoli remain in contact with Sancho's representatives, keeping lines open should a compromise over personal terms become viable. However, Juventus are understood to be in a stronger financial position to meet both the player's demands and United's valuation.
Manchester United Seek Permanent Solution
From United's perspective, the preference is clear: they would rather offload Sancho on a permanent deal than sanction another loan move. The club are believed to be holding out for an offer in the region of £25 million – a fee that reflects both Sancho's age and the diminishing years on his contract, which expires in 2026.

There is no desire within the United hierarchy to reintegrate Sancho into the first-team squad. Instead, they view this window as a pivotal opportunity to recoup some of their investment, having signed the winger from Dortmund for £73 million in 2021.
Player's Future to Be Resolved This Summer
As the summer window unfolds, Sancho's future looks increasingly likely to lie away from Old Trafford. Juventus have shown concrete interest and are now in dialogue over financial frameworks and personal terms. United are willing sellers, Juventus are actively exploring the deal, and the player himself is understood to be open to a new challenge.
The situation remains fluid, but movement is expected in the coming weeks. With United keen to streamline their squad and Juventus hoping to reinforce their attacking options, Sancho's next destination could well be the Allianz Stadium.

As reported by Il Messaggero, the Ivorian defender could guarantee a capital gain of close to 40 million euros, essential to settle the accounts in compliance with Financial Fair Play. Advertisement Several Premier League clubs have their eyes on him, including Newcastle and Manchester United, even if the initial intention of the Giallorossi is to keep the prized pieces and sacrifice only secondary elements such as Shomurodov or Paredes.

AC Milan Prepare Player-Plus Cash Offer For Inter Milan & Juventus Target

AC Milan are ready to offer Lorenzo Colombo plus cash to Parma for Inter Milan and Juventus linked defender Giovanni Leoni. This according to today's print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews. They report that the Gialloblu would prefer a straight cash bid, however.

Juventus are also eyeing up a move for Leoni. Moreover, it looks to be AC Milan who are really moving fast to sign the Italy Under-21 international. According to the Gazzetta, the Rossoneri's current strategy is to try and convince Parma with a player-plus-cash bid. The newspaper report that Milan have put striker Lorenzo Colombo on the table. The 23-year-old has just finished a season on loan with Empoli, having also turned out for Lecce and Monza in recent seasons. In addition to Colombo, Milan are offering €13-15 million, reports the Gazzetta. However, Parma have made clear to the Rossoneri that they only want a cash fee for Leoni.
