Juventus make opening bid to sign Jadon Sancho

Juventus have made an opening bid of £21 million to purchase Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho this summer, according to Gianluca Di Marzio.

The England international spent the previous campaign on loan with Chelsea, but the Blues decided against purchasing him due to his hefty weekly wages.

Sancho is now expected to pursue a new challenge and reports claim that the Bianconeri have offered £21m on the table to sign the Englishman.

The Red Devils are likely to accept the proposal made, but the big question remains whether Sancho would be willing to reduce his salary.

Sancho had no plans to do so during negotiations with Chelsea. Juventus are also unlikely to meet his current £250,000 per week wages.

If the 25-year-old does not change his stance, United may struggle to offload him permanently and may have to accept a loan deal.

Aside from Sancho, the likes of Antony and Marcus Rashford are also expected to depart during the ongoing transfer window.
