This will potentially come as a blow to Chelsea, who have been working on a deal to propose, including players such as Raheem Sterling and Ben Chilwell.
However, it sounds like Juventus have made significant progress on a deal to sign Sancho, while Federico Chiesa leaves for Liverpool.
Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio claimed earlier today that Juve are not content with just signing Teun Koopmeiners and want to add Sancho to Thiago Motta’s squad for the 2024/25 campaign.
Di Marzio said a loan offer would be sent to United today.
