Chelsea and Manchester United are reportedly in advanced negotiations over a potential move for winger Jadon Sancho, according to sources including Fabrizio Romano and Sky Sports. Despite Chelsea’s already crowded roster of wingers, the club is said to be closing in on a deal for the 23-year-old English international.
The details of the transfer are still being finalized, with the structure of the deal—whether a permanent move or a loan—remaining uncertain. Much depends on whether Chelsea can facilitate the departure of Raheem Sterling, which could impact the terms of Sancho’s potential arrival.
Sancho is reportedly keen on the move, having given his approval to join Chelsea. Meanwhile, Juventus, who had previously shown interest in the winger, appear to be out of the running, with their pursuit seemingly halted as negotiations between the English clubs progress.
As the transfer deadline looms, Chelsea continues to explore new signings, defying expectations that they would focus solely on outgoing transfers this window.
