Chelsea is now willing to include two academy players in a deal to sign Manchester United star Jadon Sancho.
Sancho, who remains on uncertain footing at Old Trafford despite mending relations with manager Erik ten Hag, is facing an unclear future with the club.
According to Fussball.news, Chelsea has entered the race to sign the England international. While Paris Saint-Germain was initially interested in Sancho, they are now likely to drop their pursuit due to the impending signing of Désiré Doué.
Chelsea is reportedly offering two academy products, along with a transfer fee, to secure Sancho from Manchester United. The Blues are also prepared to sign him with an obligation to buy and are willing to cover his substantial salary, which ranks among the highest at United.
Sancho, who showed signs of returning to form during his loan spell at Borussia Dortmund last season, has been reinstated into Ten Hag’s squad after the two reconciled following a significant fallout last year. He was also part of Manchester United’s pre-season squad and featured as a late substitute in their 1-1 (7-6 on penalties) loss to Manchester City in the Community Shield.
