January Target 'Identified' For Man Utd To Replace Sancho

January Target 'Identified' For Man Utd To Replace Sancho

A winger has been identified for Manchester United should they wish to replace Jadon Sancho in January.

With Jadon Sancho's days at Manchester United looking numbered, another Premier League star has been suggested for the Red Devils to buy in the January transfer window.

With the English winger currently not in Erik ten Hag's plans, it seems Sancho could be headed for the exit door at Old Trafford sooner rather than later.

The public spat between the attacker and his manager has not been resolved, with the London native being banned from all first-team activities, even being banished from the senior side's canteen.

At this point in time, it remains to be seen if the Mancunians are willing to cut their losses and sell the man they paid €85 million (R1.7 billion) for in 2021 or if they will explore the option of reintegrating him into the squad.

However, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, there is another player who could be available to United as soon as the beginning of 2024 should they wish to reinforce in the wing position.

"Just one final point on Man United and Jadon Sancho – at the moment, there is no significant update to report, and I'm not aware of any decision on a potential new winger signing in January," Romano said, as per CaughtOffside.

"There are many good opportunities around such as Pedro Neto, who I've already mentioned and who is a fantastic player, but it's absolutely not sure or guaranteed that Man United will spend big money in January."

The 23-year-old has been in fine form for Wolverhampton Wanderers in 2023/24 so far, having scored a goal and provided four assists in the league already.

Neto does have four years remaining on his contract at Molineux Stadium, but given the precarious financial position Wolves currently finally themselves in, they may be willing to sell their star if the opportunity arises.
