Juventus remains keen on signing Jadon Sancho on loan from Manchester United, despite already significantly bolstering their attack.
Thiago Motta’s men will compete in at least four competitions this season, which means they need squad depth.
The former midfielder has relied on a small bench of trusted professionals in the season’s first two games, but that will change this weekend.
Teun Koopmeiners is expected to join today, and Sancho could also be part of the team in Turin when the transfer window closes.
The attacker wants to leave Manchester United to get more playing time, and the Premier League club is willing to sanction his departure this summer.
However, Juve can only sign him on loan, and Manchester United must agree to pay part of his wages for the deal to happen.
The Red Devils could agree to these terms, but according to Tuttojuve, Juve still needs to sell Federico Chiesa and Filip Kostic to afford Sancho.
Releasing the salaries of both players would help the Bianconeri add the Englishman to their squad.

WHY? Jadon SANCHO ( apart from earning a top player salary , 10-15 million euros ) playes in a position where JUVENTUS FC are TOTALLY covered .
a. NICO GONZALEZ
b. CONCEICAO,
c. Tim WEAH,
d. MBANGULA,
e. YILDIZ ( can also play attacking mid i.l.o KOOPMEINERS)
f. in case of emergency CAMBIASO can play on either flank.
WHY, oh WHY , do JUVE need SANCHO?
Better a central striker / goalgetter to replace or as alternative to VLAHOVIC. That is WHERE JUVE need strength in depth.
Totally agree.
I do not understand the chasing of this bad egg we don’t need another bloody winger we need striker up top with Vlahovic or to play to give the big man a break, what happens if Dusan gets injured play Milik
Sancho’s versatility and skills perfectly match Motta’s preferences. He could excel in a forward role similar to Zirkzee’s at Bologna. It’s unfair to label him a “bad egg.”
Yeah i get he`s talented, but i get the feeling this is another of those Social Media signings.
and I want nothing getting in the way of Yildiz`s progress.
