Man United will be looking to sell Jadon Sancho this summer after he returned from Chelsea.
As Sancho couldn’t agree on personal terms regarding wages with the Blues, they instead chose to pay United £5m in order to send the winger back to Old Trafford, meaning the Red Devils will now need to look to sell him. The English attacker had a solid spell with Chelsea, scoring five goals and providing 10 assists after making 41 appearances for the Blues.
Man United could swap Sancho with Brighton star
As it looks certain that the winger has no future at Old Trafford, United will hope that they can sell him to a club where he can agree on personal terms. That may involve a wage cut based on his current contract, earning £300,000 per week.
It seems like United have by no means given up on Dorgu, but the 20-year-old lacks experience, and bringing in a veteran like Estupinan would be a good addition to Amorim’s XI.
It would provide Sancho with a chance to be a key player at a Premier League club with a young manager who is building a side capable of qualifying for Europe over the next few seasons.
The swap deal would all hinge on Sancho’s wage demands, and whether Brighton would be willing to bring the winger to the Amex. However, after his impressive season with Chelsea, it would be a surprise to see a lot of Premier League clubs pass on his quality.
Where else could Sancho go?
With the 25-year-old reportedly open to a move either abroad or in the Premier League, his options are vast, but in terms of recent rumours, there is an English club keen to sign the winger.
According to talkSPORT, West Ham United want to ensure that Sancho stays in London, and are keen to sign him this summer as Graham Potter aims to bolster his attacking options.
This comes amid reports that the Hammers could cash in on Mohammed Kudus this summer, which if they do, means that they would likely be able to afford Sancho’s hefty wage demands.
However, United haven’t been linked with any players from the London Stadium in recent weeks, so it would be more beneficial for the Red Devils to swap Sancho with Brighton in order to get Estupinan.
