Jadon Sancho has been offered to Tottenham as a potential option before the transfer deadline, as Manchester United are desperate to sell.
According to TBR, Jadon Sancho has been offered to Tottenham in a bid to get rid of the winger. Manchester United are desperate to sell the unwanted star, as his wages have been the biggest issue to offload him so far, despite tremendous interest from some of the big clubs abroad.
Jadon Sancho’s time at Manchester United is certainly over, but the club are struggling to get rid of the winger. His £300,000-a-week wages are a big stumbling block, as the player reportedly does not want to lose out on his potential earnings by accepting a lower wage elsewhere.
Some big continental teams have been on his trail during this window, with AS Roma and Juventus some of the suitors who tried hard to get his signature. Sancho was reluctant to sign for Roma, and the Italian side may have moved on from him since.
There have been links to Bayern Munich, while Inter Milan were also keen at some stage. For now, his future is in limbo as Manchester United are desperate to sell. While it is expected that Sancho would depart before the transfer deadline, his next destination is still unclear.
In a bid to get rid of him, Sancho has been offered to Tottenham, who are eager to land a wide attacker before the window closes. The former Chelsea loanee could be an option for Thomas Frank to consider, and they might open talks with Manchester United if other targets appear to be out of their range.
Tottenham to make move for Jadon Sancho?
While Sancho is not the first name on Tottenham’s list heading closer to deadline day, they might consider him as an alternative of sorts. The departure of former skipper Son Heung-min has created space in the wide areas for another winger to come in. They had chased Savinho for the last few weeks, and now, Manchester City are planning to keep him beyond the summer window.
With the Brazilian seemingly out of reach, pivoting towards Sancho might be a play that Spurs might consider. Any deal for the Manchester United outcast will depend on his asking price as well as Spurs’ ability to get personal terms agreed with the winger, which may yet prove a big issue ahead of the transfer deadline.
