Pushes for Juventus Move as Transfer Talks Reach Advanced StageManchester United winger Jadon Sancho is edging closer to a summer exit, with Juventus leading the race to secure his signature.
According to multiple Italian media outlets, including Tuttosport and Corriere dello Sport, negotiations between the two clubs are now in their final stages, though a few key details remain unresolved.
Sancho, who has found himself firmly out of favor at Old Trafford, is reportedly eager to revive his career in Serie A and has made it clear that Juventus is his preferred destination.
The 24-year-old has informed United officials that he is only interested in a move to the Turin-based club, firmly rejecting interest from other potential suitors in favor of a new chapter in Italy.
Manchester United are said to have accepted the winger’s decision, and a deal worth approximately €25 million, including performance-related bonuses, has been broadly agreed upon.
However, while the framework of the transfer is in place, the two clubs are still working to finalize certain contractual terms and administrative details.In addition, Juventus must still reach a full personal agreement with Sancho himself.
While progress has been made, some financial issues have yet to be ironed out.
According to La Stampa, via Tutto Juve, Sancho’s representatives held a positive meeting earlier this week with staff from Rúben Amorim’s technical team, laying the groundwork for his eventual departure.
Following that meeting, reports suggest that both clubs settled on a revised base fee closer to €20 million, with Sancho agreeing in principle to a salary package worth €6 million per year in Turin.
However, a key stumbling block remains: a dispute between Sancho and Manchester United over a severance payment.
The England international is reportedly insisting on receiving no less than €5 million as part of his departure from the club, while United are reluctant to meet that figure in full.
Sources close to the negotiation say that resolving this issue is now the final obstacle before the move can be completed.
Despite the ongoing discussions, optimism remains high that an agreement will soon be reached.
All sides are said to be committed to closing the deal, and Juventus hope to welcome Sancho before the start of their pre-season tour.
If completed, the move would mark a significant turning point for both club and player.
For Sancho, it represents a fresh start after a difficult spell in Manchester, while for Juventus, it’s an opportunity to add a technically gifted and motivated attacker to their squad as they aim to reassert themselves domestically and in Europe.
The coming days are expected to be decisive as Juventus push to finalize what could be one of the more notable transfers of the summer.-
