A move to Juventus could very well be imminent for Jadon Sancho as the winger’s agent has arrived in Turin.
The Italian side have been linked with the former England international since last summer when they tried to take him on loan, only to see him head to Stamford Bridge for the season instead.
However, his return to Old Trafford following a breakdown in negotiations over a permanent move to Chelsea opened the door once more for Juve.

The main issue for Chelsea, as with all of Sancho’s suitors, was his wages.
For Manchester United, Sancho’s earning around £300,000 per week, with most clubs refusing to match that wage demand.
Chelsea picked up £180,000 per week of this during his loan spell, offering that same figure as a continued permanent wage for him to stay at Stamford Bridge, which was rejected.

Now, in a bid to get Sancho to consider a wage cut, United are looking to pay the winger a severance payment of £4.3 million, hoping to help get deal with Juve over the line.
It’s also understood that The Old Lady have put forward a bid of £15 million for their target, and whilst this is less than the £25 million Chelsea agreed, they could still go for it purely to get him off their books.
As such, the ball seems firmly in Sancho’s court, with Calcio Mercato now reporting that his agent has arrived in Turin today with the aim of getting the deal across the line.
With this in mind, United could be on the brink of their first major sale of the summer, with Sancho already clear that he wants to join Juventus.
