Sancho agreement ‘CLOSE’: Man Utd winger close to shock PSG transfer
Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho is “close” to agreeing personal terms with PSG in a potential blockbuster transfer deal.
Sancho featured for Man Utd in a friendly win over Rangers in Edinburgh on Saturday but is not expected to remain at Old Trafford after falling out with manager Erik ten Hag last summer.
The 24-year-old was allowed to leave on loan to Borussia Dortmund in a move that was largely used as an attempt to raise transfer interest in a player who has struggled to find his best level at any point during his stay with the Red Devils.

Although his form with BVB was enough for the Bundesliga side to make an attempt to retain the winger, Man Utd’s asking price has been too great for them to match.
Sancho shone, in particular, against PSG in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final clash, and that performance appears to have triggered the interest of the Ligue 1 champions on the versatile attacker.
FootMercato states that Sancho is “about to conclude” talks over personal terms.

While PSG appear to be making good progress with the England international winger, who is said to be “excited” by the prospect of making a move to Parc des Princes, there are doubts over whether the Ligue 1 champions will complete a deal.
The report indicates: “It remains to be seen whether Man Utd will let the England international leave and at what price”.
What will Man Utd sell Sancho for?
The BBC reported at the beginning of June that Man Utd have set an asking price of €47.5 million for the winger.
This is broadly in line with the Estimated Transfer Value (ETV) of the player, which stands at €41.5m, with a maximum estimate of €51.9m. This is still down from his maximum value of €108.7m, which was achieved shortly after joining United.
A deal could potentially hinge on whether PSG complete a deal for Napoli striker Victor Osimhen, with the Parc des Princes side currently in talks over a forward who has a release clause of €130m.
