Juventus make wage demand to Man United over Jadon Sancho loan image

Juventus are reportedly preparing a loan offer for Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho.

England international Sancho looked set for a re-introduction into Erik ten Hag's plans for the 2024/25 campaign following a summer meeting between the pair.

Ten Hag ended the former Borussia Dortmund star's team exile with Red Devils fans confident he would be a key asset in the months ahead.

However, ten Hag offered a lukewarm response over his decision to omit Sancho from the matchday squad for United's 2-1 Premier League defeat at Brighton & Hove Albion.

That follows on from missing United's opening game of the campaign, at home to Fulham, with player and manager not appearing ready to work with each other once again.

Alongside interest from French champions PSG, Sancho is also on Juventus' radar, as they potentially look to replace Barcelona-linked Federico Chiesa.

As per the latest from Italian outlet Gazzetta dello Sport, Sancho is on Juventus' list, but he is not the only option for the Turin giants and United will need to make concessions to secure another loan departure.

Sancho's £9.8m ($13m) annual salary is a current stumbling block, with Juventus requesting United pay a percentage of that across the loan spell, with the unconfirmed addition of a purchase clause.
