Juventus chief issues Jadon Sancho demand as Man Utd outcast makes huge decision

Juventus will only consider the arrival of Jadon Sancho this summer if they departures from the club according to one of the side's top chiefs. General manager Damien Comolli has revealed that the Manchester United winger is on the agenda, but only in certain conditions.

Sancho has been widely linked with a move to Turin after seeing Chelsea pay a £5million penalty to avoid making his loan move permanent earlier this summer. The former Borussia Dortmund star has not been in Ruben Amorim's plans this summer as the club tour the United States.

United are already said to have accepted that they will have 'no choice' but to accept a fee of less than £25million for Sancho this summer, amid negotiations with Juve. For his part, Sancho is said to be willing to slash his wages in half to facilitate an exit from Old Trafford.

Momentum had seemed to be growing over a move to Serie A, with the Bianconeri said to have agreed personal terms and a fee of £15m for Sancho's services. But it emerged sales could first be required and Comolli has now confirmed as much.

The club official was asked about the prospect of signing Sancho this summer and said, per Sport Witness: “I think the club is very attractive; many agents and players are calling me. After all, we are Juventus, and we want to get back to winning ways.

“Securing Conceição’s permanence was a clear and strong decision because he can play on both fronts. We have two of the best wingers in the world, and Nico is a great player. If someone were to leave, we will consider him [Sancho]."

Juventus' pause could allow Borussia Dortmund to act. Bild report Sancho has already signalled to BVB that he is interested in a third spell at the club.

Aa stay at United cannot yet be ruled out either. Red Devils boss Amorim has suggested he would reintegrate players not currently involved in his squad should they be unable to win a transfer.

"Some players have to find a new place to have more space in the team and other players clearly show they want a new challenge and want new teams," Amorim said in Chicago. "We are just allowing these players to have time to think and to decide.

"If we reach a point where they have to join the team, they will join the team because they are our players. I'm ready to receive the players. They have more competition, more competition if you want to play in the World Cup next year, you need to play.

"So I'm really happy with that because I have more options. If they have to fight each other to play, for me it's perfect."
