Manchester United are conscious of how clubs could try and take advantage of them in any potential deals for Jadon Sancho, as per ESPN.

The 23-year-old looks nailed on to leave Old Trafford in January as his feud with Erik ten Hag shows no signs of a resolution anytime soon.

Sancho has not featured for the Red Devils since August 26 after a 3-2 win over Nottingham Forest. He went on to be omitted from the matchday squad for the following week’s clash against Arsenal, which was when the dispute began.

In terms of Sancho’s current exit options, Saudi Pro League clubs, Juventus and Borussia Dortmund have all registered their interest, but considering he rebuffed a summer move to Al-Ettifaq in September, he’ll presumably opt for one of the European sides.

United’s stance on Sancho’s exit

ESPN states that while United are open to bids for the outcast winger in the New Year, they will not accept offers they deem too far below his value.

United are also braced for loan proposals but interested parties would need to contribute significantly to Sancho’s £300,000-a-week wage, as well as pay a fee to get the deal done.

The Englishman arrived in M16 for £73 million from Dortmund back in 2021, so they’ll need to cut their losses to some degree if Ten Hag wants to wash his hands of the situation.
