Jadon Sancho Presses Manchester United into a Corner Amid Juventus Interest

Stephen Awino 12:56 - 15.07.2025

Jadon Sancho is pushing for a move to Juventus, but Manchester United’s high asking price for the winger is forcing a standoff.

Jadon Sancho’s future at Manchester United has taken a dramatic turn, with the winger ramping up pressure on the club to facilitate his move to Juventus.

Talks between the player and the Italian giants have grown more serious, with direct contacts intensifying in recent days.

Despite having only one year left on his contract at Old Trafford, United have slapped a €25 million price tag on Sancho an amount that Juventus are unwilling to meet.

Sancho, for his part, is playing the long game.

The England international is prepared to wait for Juventus, underlining his desire to reignite his career in Turin.

However, the final hurdle remains United’s valuation, which most observers view as unrealistic for a player nearing the end of his contract.

With no club currently willing to match the asking price, the Premier League club finds itself in a weakening negotiating position.

Manchester United’s reluctance to lower their price may end up costing them more than just a transfer fee.

Sancho has made it clear that his preference is a move to Juventus, and his stance gives the Italian side leverage.

Juventus are playing their cards patiently, knowing they could either force United to drop the fee or eventually sign the player for free next summer.

Internally, United are aware of the precarious situation.

The winger has fallen out of favor at the club and with manager Ruben Amorim, and retaining him for another season could create further tension in the dressing room.

While they are standing firm on the €25 million price point for now, the mounting pressure from Sancho's camp and the lack of rival bidders may soon force their hand.

For Sancho, a move to Juventus represents a fresh start and an escape from a turbulent spell in Manchester.

With discussions between Juventus and his representatives heating up and the player’s will becoming increasingly clear, Manchester United may be left with only two realistic options to either lower their valuation or risk losing Sancho for nothing in 2026.

Either way, the pressure is building and it is Sancho who seems to be holding the stronger hand.
