Manchester United go ahead with a move by Jadon Sancho after landing Donny van de Beek, while Lionel Messi could stay at Barcelona after all, all in the papers.
DID THE MAN WANT TO HIT AGAIN?
Manchester United are looking to attack while the iron is hot as they try to advance a deal for Jadon Sancho.
Fresh off the hiring of Donny van de Beek this week, United officials are moving forward with a move for Sancho on a deal that will break his record transfer of £ 89 million.
According to the Daily mail, United are finalizing Sancho’s personal and salary terms, as well as intermediary fees before approaching Dortmund with an official offer.
The newspaper claims that Sancho’s agent is Emeka Obasi from the Elite Project Group agency. The agency also has Bukayo Saka, Todd Cantwell, and Eddie Nketiah on its books.
Dortmund boss Michael Zorc insisted last month that any chance of United signing the 20-year-old star had dissipated after they missed Dortmund’s August 10 deadline.
Speculation has recently died down with the Bundesliga club refusing to budge on its valuation, which is believed to be £ 108 million.
