Jadon Sancho reaches agreement with PSG

Manchester United's summer transfer policy could depend on the future of Jadon Sancho. As things stand, he is likely their most profitable asset in terms of players who Erik ten Hag would actually consider selling.

Jadon Sancho went out on loan halfway through last season, as he fell out with Erik ten Hag. It was a very public spat and one which doesn't need rehashing, since it seems the two have forgiven each other. In fact, Erik ten Hag asked Jadon Sancho to join the squad for pre-season and he did, making an appearance against Rangers and Arsenal.

Now, according to French outlet Sports Zone, Paris Saint-Germain have reached an agreement in principle with Jadon Sancho. However, the Parisians will be unable to sign the Englishman unless they meet the £50m asking price set by Manchester United.

Manchester United have three swap deal options for Jadon Sancho

PSG is not the only option for Jadon Sancho, as Manchester United could use him as a makeweight for their own transfer plans this summer. According to a report from Express, Manchester United could target either one of Nordi Mukiele, Manuel Ugarte or Milan Skriniar, in return for Jadon Sancho.

So, Erik ten Hag is open to utilising the player departure to optimise his remaining transfer budget. It would be a smart move and could be a way of Man United getting "more bang for their buck" in return for Jadon Sancho. None of those players are wingers like Sancho, which likely suggests that Sancho is deemed as surprlus to requirements at United anyway.

Man United value Aaron Wan-Bissaka at over £15m amid West Ham interest

Another wide player who could be on his way out of Manchester United this summer is Aaron Wan-Bissaka. The 26-year-old who is considered as one of the best defence-minded full-backs in the game is in the final year of his contract and he is of interest to West Ham United.

According to a report from Sky Sports, Manchester United value Wan-Bissaka at over £15m, should West Ham wish to meet this fee.
