Man United Offer to Swap Jadon Sancho for Frenkie de Jong
According to Football365, Manchester United are planning to sign midfielder Frenkie de Jong from Barcelona. To make this deal, the Red Devils plan to pay Barcelona 20 million euros plus star Jadon Sancho in exchange.
Jadon Sancho: Uncertain Future at Man United
Jadon Sancho did not feature in Manchester United’s Premier League opener against Fulham and was absent again in the recent defeat to Brighton. This absence has further raised questions about Sancho’s future at Old Trafford. The England player is considering the possibility of leaving the club in search of more regular playing opportunities.
Transfer Market: PSG and Juventus Both Interested
After talks between Manchester United and PSG fell through, Juventus are showing interest in Jadon Sancho and could make an offer in the near future. If Man United sell Sancho for around £40m, the money could be used to pursue Brentford striker Ivan Toney.
Frenkie de Jong: Deal in Progress
If Sancho fails to sell, Manchester United will continue to pursue Frenkie de Jong with an offer of €20m plus Jadon Sancho. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has confirmed the news and said that talks between Manchester United and Barcelona are still ongoing. Football365 also revealed that Barcelona’s sporting director Deco is considering an offer from the Red Devils.
Other Transfer Efforts: Manuel Ugarte
Alongside the De Jong deal, Manchester United are also working to complete their fifth signing of the summer transfer window. Specifically, they are close to signing Manuel Ugarte from PSG for a fee of around £50.8 million. Ugarte, a 23-year-old Uruguayan, is expected to strengthen the team’s midfield.
Manchester United are actively working to complete their squad in this transfer window. Swapping Jadon Sancho for Frenkie de Jong and recruiting Manuel Ugarte will be important steps to improve the Red Devils’ strength next season.
