Fabrizio Romano confirms Man Utd have been 'offered' three Juventus players in stunning swap deal for Jadon Sancho

The Italian side are prepared to go all out to secure the United outcast.

Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that Juventus are prepared to offer three players as part of a stunning swap deal for Jadon Sancho.

Since making a £73million move from Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund in the summer of 2021, Sancho has struggled to find his feet at United.

In 83 appearances for the Red Devils, the Englishman has scored just 12 goals and registered six assists.

His poor performances led to United sending him back to Dortmund on loan for the second half of the 2023/24 season, before Chelsea took him on a loan-to-buy deal for all of last season.

But after Chelsea paid United £5m to get out of their obligation to buy the 25-year-old, he is once again on United's transfer list, and it appears that Juventus are willing to go all out for him.

Since the transfer window first opened at the beginning of June, Serie A giants Juventus have been relatively quiet, with Nico Gonzalez the only player to join who wasn't already on loan.

Recent rumours have suggested that the Italian side could be preparing a contract for free agent Jonathan David, and now Romano has revealed that Juventus are prepared to offers as many as three players to secure a deal for Sancho.

Writing for GiveMeSport, Romano confirmed that the Italian side aren't interested in buying Sancho outright, due to his £200,000 per week salary at United.

The first name mentioned by Romano is striker Dusan Vlahovic, who Juventus view as the perfect option to fix United’s issues in the centre of their attack.

Given the recent poor performances from both Joshua Zirkzee and Rasmus Hojlund, it's no secret that United will be eager to sign a striker this summer and Vlahovic, who has been linked with the club in the past, could be the perfect option.

Romano also revealed that former Aston Villa star Douglas Luiz could be included in a swap deal, just one year after he left the Premier League to join Juventus.

Following a big £44.2m move last summer, Luiz has failed to stand out at his new club, failing to score or assist across 27 appearances in all competitions.

Finally, Romano suggested that a straight swap involving Sancho and US international Timothy Weah could be on the cards, with the winger's current situation at Juventus similar to Sancho's at United.

Weah joined Juventus from Ligue 1 side Lille for an undisclosed fee in July 2023, but has struggled to to find consistent first team minutes for his new club.

However, despite a lack of consistent starts, the 25-year-old scored six goals and providing five assists across 43 appearances.

Having played on both sides of Juventus' attack and as a full back, Weah is seen as a perfect versatile option for Ruben Amorim's squad.
