Jadon Sancho is on the 'verge' of leaving Manchester United ahead of the transfer window slamming shut.
According to David Ornstein, Chelsea have finally struck a deal with Man United for the signing of Sancho.
The deal will see Sancho move on an initial loan with Chelsea having an obligation to make the transfer permanent next summer.
Per the report, the winger will then be expected to sign a long-term contract at Stamford Bridge.

The 24-year-old will be the latest player to join Chelsea this summer, with the likes of Pedro Neto, Joao Felix and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall moving to the club.
Despite patching things up with Erik ten Hag following their dispute last season, Sancho had been linked with a move away from Old Trafford.
And after intense speculation, it appears his move to Chelsea is nearing completion.

Enzo Maresca seems set to beat the likes of Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain to the signature of Sancho.
He signed for Man United in the summer of 2021 in a transfer worth £73 million.
He's made 83 appearances for the club, scoring 12 goals.
The Englishman spent the second half of last season on loan at Borussia Dortmund.
