Paris Saint-Germain are stepping up their efforts to sign Jadon Sancho as the Manchester United winger’s exit from Old Trafford looks increasingly likely.
Despite some conflicting reports, it seems the French giants are determined to bring Sancho to the Parc des Princes before the transfer window closes.
Recent reports from France suggest PSG are still in the race to sign Sancho, despite earlier claims the club had ended their pursuit following the signing of Desire Doue.
According The teamPSG are still actively working on a deal with the 23-year-old Englishman, who has been a priority for the club’s management throughout the summer.
An exchange agreement with Ugarte is on the table
Luis Enrique and PSG sporting director Luís Campos have been looking for a winger who can bring creativity and effectiveness to the team for some time, and Sancho fits that profile. The potential transfer could also involve a swap deal, with Manchester United eyeing PSG midfielder Manuel Ugarte as part of the deal.
Ugarte, who was recently told he is not part of Luis Enrique’s plans, could be on his way to Manchester as part of negotiations. This fact reinforces United’s hopes of landing the Uruguayan midfielder, either as part of the deal for Sancho or in a separate transfer.
