Juventus have reportedly submitted a £15 million (€17.3 million) offer to Manchester United for out-of-favour winger Jadon Sancho.

The English forward is clearly not in Ruben Amorim's plans for the season, with his future certainly set to be away from Old Trafford. Sancho is one of five players who have been told to train away from the rest of the squad, with the outcast group also including Marcus Rashford, Alejandro Garnacho, Antony and Tyrell Malacia.

Sancho has been a player that United have been trying to offload for a couple of seasons, with the 25-year-old being set to leave for Chelsea last season, but the Blues opted against utilising their obligation to buy him, instead preferring to pay a smaller fee to send him back to United.

However, it seems like United may finally be set to get rid of the vocal winger, with Italian side Juve pushing for a move.

Italian journalist Alfredo Pedulla is reporting that the Bianconeri have now increased their offer for the United winger to €17.3 million.

This is considered as much closer to United's asking price, set at €25 million. United's valuation is seen as unrealistic by Juve due to him already being in the final year of his contract and also having a substantial salary.

Sancho has already agreed personal terms with Juve, thus making a potential move easier. He is reportedly holding off on other options in order to get a deal with Juve over the line.

Juve are also in the process of sealing a move for Francisco Conceicao from FC Porto, another winger, and therefore it is unclear whether that will affect the move for Sancho.

United are in desperate need of funds, and thus they need to offload their transfer-listed players as soon as possible in order to start facilitating some incomings. Sancho is definitely one of the key players that they want to see the back of for good this summer.
