Premier League club, Chelsea have indicated interest in signing Manchester United winger, Jadon Sancho.
The England international, despite his inclusion in the Red Devils’ squad this season, is still not well received at Old Trafford and faces an uncertain future under Erik ten Hag.
According to Fussball.news, the Blues have entered the race to sign the 24-year-old and are willing to use two academy products as makeweights in the proposed deal.
Chelsea are also opened to signing the Three Lions star with an obligation to buy and cover his salary which makes him one of the highest earners at Manchester United.

The winger, who was back to his real self during last season’s loan spell at Borussia Dortmund, has been reinstated into Ten Hag’s squad.
The forward and his manager made up following a massive fallout last year.
“We spoke well. Anyone can make a mistake. If the player reflects well on that, then draw a line and continue again.
This club needs good players, and one thing is for sure: Jadon Sancho is a terribly good player. I hope the click will come after all, and that it will contribute to our success,” Ten Hag said after they reconciled.
Sancho was part of the Dutch tactician’s pre-season squad and featured in his side’s 1-1 (7-6 penalty shootout) loss to Manchester City in the Community Shield.
Meanwhile, PSG, who were said to be interested in signing Sancho, are now likely to rule out a move for him following the progress made in the deal for Desire Doue.
