TOP STORY: Juventus won't give up on Sancho
A source has told ESPN's Rob Dawson that Jadon Sancho is set to be re-integrated into the Manchester United squad following discussions with manager Erik ten Hag, but that isn't going to deter Juventus.
Sancho hasn't played for United since August after publicly criticising Ten Hag in a social media post. He spent the second half of last season on loan at former club Borussia Dortmund, reaching the Champions League final. But after holding a meeting with Ten Hag this week, Sancho has returned to training with the first team.
The club have been open to offers for Sancho this summer with Juventus one of the clubs interested, but the valuation of £40 million has proven problematic. Tuttosport reports that Sancho being back in the United squad will not stop them from pursuing a deal.
The report says that Juve are convinced that the 24-year-old wants to join them -- and could offer Federico Chiesa on loan as part of the deal.
