[Saba Sports News] According to Italian media reports, Serie A team Juventus has been hoping to loan Manchester United player Jadon Sancho; however, both sides have not reached an agreement regarding wages. It is reported that Manchester United does not want to cover any wages; if Juventus wants to bring in Sancho, he must voluntarily lower his salary demands. It remains unclear whether Sancho agrees to this request. Sancho is not Eric ten Hag’s first choice but is willing to join Juventus. However, for Juventus to sign Sancho, he needs to lower his current salary demand of €10 million because Manchester United is unwilling to cover any part of his wages; Juventus can only consider a selective loan-to-buy option for Sancho. It is believed that Manchester United may ultimately accept Juventus’ conditions and agree to cover part of Sancho’s wages to finalize this deal through a loan-to-buy arrangement. The reason Manchester United wishes to sell Sancho seems to stem from his performance not meeting expectations; despite having shown great potential previously, his overall performance during his time at Manchester United may not have lived up to the club’s hopes.
