Manchester United are reportedly keen on Manuel Ugarte and Xavi Simons, but Paris Saint-Germain might be interested in a player currently under contract with the Red Devils.
Jadon Sancho spent the second half of the 2023-24 season on loan with Borussia Dortmund and the Englishman played a role in the German club’s run to the UEFA Champions League final. Moreover, PSG saw the type of player Sancho is up close in the semifinal matchup.
In the first leg, Sancho registered three key passes during his 90 minutes while also having 100 touches in the contest. The 24-year-old found a new lease on life abroad. Perhaps a move to the French capital could further help him get his career on track.
As a result, Foot Mercato’s Santi Aouna reports that PSG have put a contract offer on the table for Sancho, and talks are progressing well. Furthermore, the Manchester United winger is excited about the project PSG has laid out.

The next step is to see if Manchester United will agree to let him go and at what cost. It will be interesting to see if this potential transfer can involve one of Ugarte or Simons to ensure this move happens.
United need Simons (straight swap) if we lose Sancho; United cannot rely on one trick pony Antony
We need to stop chasing targets like Braithwaite etc for crazy fees. Our new management must not fall in to the old trap of overpaying because wr are mufc..Sancho only showed a bit of what he iscapable of..keep him..its no cost and really a no brainer to thk of doung a deal
