PSG start Sancho talks as Man Utd identify new midfield targets


Paris Saint-Germain have held initial talks with Manchester United over the signing of forward Jadon Sancho.

Discussions were over the conditions of a potential deal and Sancho could be open to a move with personal terms not expected to be a problem.

Sancho has now resumed training as part of the Manchester United squad and has played in pre-season after burying the hatchet with boss Erik ten Hag.

Juventus and Borussia Dortmund have previously expressed an interest in signing the winger this summer, who has a valuation of £40m.

Dialogue remains open between PSG over a deal as they have also discussed Manuel Ugarte this summer.

United retain an interest in Ugarte – but not at the prices being quoted by PSG.

United aware PSG want to do business having just signed Joao Neves from Benfica for £50m.

The player is keen on a move to Old Trafford but in keeping with United’s approach this summer, they are doing work on a number of other midfielders – including Monaco’s Youssouf Fofana, Real Socieded’s Martin Zubimendi, Fiorentina’s Sofyan Amrabat and Burnley’s Sander Berge.

Squad space will need to be created for United to go into the market for a midfielder but that could be freed up if Fulham decide to go back in for Scott McTominay after having two bids rejected.
