Transfer News: Mourinho reportedly wants unwanted Man Utd forward

Manchester United are determined to offload winger Jadon Sancho this summer, with former manager Jose Mourinho reportedly keen to bring him to Fenerbahce.

Sancho is expected to depart Old Trafford following his loan spell at Chelsea, who paid a £5 million fee to cancel their £25 million obligation to buy him. 

His expected exclusion from United's pre-season tour, alongside other key players, signals Ruben Amorim's intent for a clear-out.

As reported by TEAMtalk, Fenerbahce have reportedly enquired about Sancho's availability, as Mourinho aims for the Turkish league title and even European success. 

The Englishman contributed five goals and 10 assists for Chelsea last term, helping them secure the Europa Conference League; however, Enzo Maresca's side snubbed his permanent move.

Sancho's potential move to Turkey faces competition from two Italian giants. 

The report states that Napoli, under Antonio Conte, are confirmed admirers and see him as a replacement for Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. 

Juventus are also actively pursuing Sancho, reportedly prepared to pay around £22 million for the player who has one year remaining on his contract. 

A significant hurdle for any suitor is Sancho's substantial £250,000 weekly wages, meaning he would likely need to accept a pay cut for a permanent transfer. 

United, who face Arsenal in round one of the 2025-26 Premier League campaign, hope to finalise more extensions and incomings by the start of pre-season in July.
