INEOS are seemingly aiming to get Jadon Sancho off the books at Manchester United as quickly as possible so they can put his transfer funds to better use.
At present, the winger has been linked with a host of clubs, with a permanent transfer to Borussia Dortmund all but ruled out due to the Germans’ financial woes.
Juventus are thought to be Sancho’s most likely destination as it stands, as they plot a double-swoop for both him and his fellow outcast attacker Mason Greenwood. However, reports have suggested that The Old Lady may have to resort to offering players to fulfil any deals, as they do not have the funds in place to meet United’s asking prices.

Reds could welcome new arrival in place of Sancho
In line with this, Federico Chiesa has been mooted as a potential option to make the switch to Old Trafford so that Sancho can embark on a new venture in Turin. The Reds have placed a £40 million price tag on their Englishman, but it’s his eye-watering wages of £290,000 per week that are proving to be the most significant stumbling block for any interested clubs.
As per Italian outlet Tuttomercatoweb’s Mirko Di Natale, INEOS want to sanction Sancho’s exit by mid-July, giving the clubs over 11 days to try and hash out a deal.
United are braced to take a significant hit on the £73m they forked out for him back in 2021.
