Transfer: Man Utd decide on £100m move for Sancho as Torreira gets two-year deal at new club

Manchester United are ready to make a move for £100million Borussia Dortmund star, Jadon Sancho, if midfielder Paul Pogba eventually leaves Old Trafford in this summer’s transfer window.

DAILY POST had reported that Pogba is set to leave Man United before the end of the transfer window after he told reporters in Tokyo, Japan last week that he wants “a new challenge”.

According to Forbes, the Red Devils are willing to move for Sancho if Pogba departs the club.

The report claimed that Man United’s hierarchy believes that Sancho would fill some of the void to be left by the France World Cup winner.

Sancho was among the six players Manchester United manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, wants to sign this summer.

The 19-year-old has 12 goals and 19 assists for Dortmund last season.

Meanwhile, AC Milan have made a two-year loan bid worth €8 million for Arsenal midfielder, Lucas Torreira.

According to Sportitalia, this is coming after Torreira told Arsenal’s board that he is unhappy in England and wants to return to Serie A with AC Milan.

The Uruguay international joined Arsenal from Sampdoria last summer for £26.5million.

Speaking on his future at Arsenal earlier this month, Torreira admitted that he is still struggling with life in England.

He said: “I think it was better in Italy. “England is a totally different world, a very large country.”
