(Football news) As a member of the Red Devils’ traveling squad for the team’s summer tour of the United States, the 24-year-old has spent preseason training with his senior colleagues.
Sancho has played for Manchester United in exhibition matches thus far against Rangers, Arsenal, Real Betis, and Liverpool; however, he has not scored a goal or provided an assist.
Nevertheless, the former England international’s career has undergone a significant upheaval to be working under Erik ten Hag’s direction after the two had a well-publicized falling out the previous season.
Due to the winger’s unwillingness to offer an apology to the Dutchman, Sancho was forced to rejoin Borussia Dortmund for the second part of the 2023–24 season, at which time the German team advanced to the Champions League final.
Manchester United looking to sell PSG-linked Sancho this summer?
Manchester United have decided their transfer strategy around out-of-favour attacker Sancho as the summer window deadline approaches.
Despite him being reintegrated into the Red Devils’ senior side during pre-season, it is understood that the club are hoping to offload the 24-year-old permanently this summer.
The report claims that a move to Ligue 1 powerhouses PSG for Sancho is a distinct possibility and could materialise before the end of August.
It was suggested earlier this week that Manchester United and Les Parisiens have held initial talks over a potential deal for the 23-time international.
Luis Enrique’s side have supposedly identified Sancho as an attacker who could help fill the goalscoring void left following the departure of the club’s all-time leading goalscorer Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid.
Manchester United are not afraid to cut ties
As well as Sancho, it is believed that Man United are also willing to end their association with £82m winger Antony before the start of the new term.
It would be an understatement to say that the Brazilian has failed to live up to expectations at Old Trafford since joining from Ajax during the summer of 2022.
Ten Hag could be low on attacking options should Antony and Sancho both depart soon, especially considering that Rasmus Hojlund is set to be sidelined until at least September due to injury.
Brentford’s Ivan Toney has been mooted as a possible arrival at the Theatre of Dreams, although Manchester United’s necessity for another striker has been reduced since the signing of Joshua Zirkzee from Bologna in July.
