Manchester United have received a staggeringly low offer for Jadon Sancho from Juventus amid their struggle to sell the player. The 25-year-old remains available during this summer transfer window to sell him permanently to bolster the budget under Ruben Amorim.
United have opted to keep their faith in Amorim, despite his underwhelming start to the tenure at the Manchester club. The former Sporting CP boss managed to take Man United to the 15th position in the Premier League last season.
The Red Devils also lost the Europa League final to their English rivals, Tottenham Hotspur, rubbing salt into their wound. Sancho’s infamous public fallout with former United manager Erik ten Hag started this unending transfer saga during the 2023-24 season.
Sancho has spent two spells outside of United on loan with Borussia Dortmund and rivals Chelsea since the off-field drama. The Londoners had a £25m option to buy the 25-year-old this summer, but they opted to pay a £5m penalty.
We All Follow United have recently covered that the Englishman’s wage demand remains a big obstacle in any permanent sale. According to Gianluca DiMarzio, Juventus have submitted a bid of €15m (£12.9m), inclusive of bonuses, for Man United outcast Sancho.
The reported bid is about £12 million less than the £25m demand that the Red Devils are demanding for Sancho. United are facing similar difficulties in selling other surplus players like Marcus Rashford and Antony due to their enormous salaries.
At the same time, Man United cannot take too much time in negotiating such deals, as they need to recruit. The current squad failed to adjust to Amorim’s tactical demands, showcasing vulnerabilities in many areas of the team last season.

United need to recruit more players who suit Amorim’s style of play under the 3-4-2-1 formation that he unconditionally prefers. As for Sancho, he needs to lower his demands if he wants to find a club and have any chance of representing England in the 2026 World Cup.
