There is a good chance Manchester United will be looking at a new right winger in the transfer market.

Even if Antony returns in the meantime, it doesn’t sound like Jadon Sancho has much of a future at Old Trafford.

Reports in Italy are now suggesting United are eyeing a potential move for Juventus forward Federico Chiesa as they plan for life without Sancho, as per Calciomercato.

It remains to be seen where Sancho will end up, but there has been links to Barcelona as well as the Saudi Pro League since his public spat with Erik ten Hag.

The 23-year-old has been banished from first-team training and could leave in January.

As such, United could find themselves looking for a right winger and are said to be keen on Italy international Chiesa.

The 25-year-old Juventus star has four goals in six Serie A appearances this season and they are said to want at least €30 million for his signature.
