Chelsea not ruling out an opportunistic move for Manchester United forward Jadon Sancho

Chelsea are continuing to keep an eye on the situation of Manchester United forward Jadon Sancho as the summer transfer window nears its deadline, according to the Guardian.

The Blues remain keen on recruiting the services of the Red Devils star and have not ruled out making an opportunistic move for him in the final seven days of the window.

Sancho’s future at Man United is still up in the air despite settling his differences with manager Erik ten Hag and featuring during their pre-season tour of the United States.

Chelsea will keep monitoring his situation as they want to bolster their attacking ranks in the coming days, and the Red Devils could be open to doing business for the right fee.

Juventus are also keen on Sancho after he impressed during his loan stint with Borussia Dortmund during the second half of last season, helping them reach the Champions League final.

The Blues are the Premier League moneybags right now, and they could be willing to splash the cash on the 24-year-old.

Man United need to generate funds from departures if they want to do further business this summer and could sanction further sales in a bid to buy Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Manuel Ugarte.

They have spent around £155 million this summer and are mindful of the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability Rules.

Cashing in on Sancho will come in very much handy, and more suitors could join Chelsea and Juve in the coming days for the Englishman.

He came off the bench against Manchester City in the Community Shield but played no part in the Premier League opener against Fulham last Friday.

He could have played his last game for the club from the look of things.
