According to Calciomercato , Jadon Sancho's move to Chelsea could now be off the cards after Juventus made initial contact with the player's representatives. Sancho has been unable to forge a way into Ten Hag's plans after their high-profile fallout last season.
The former Borussia Dortmund man returned to the Bundesliga on loan in January and helped the German giants reach the Champions League final before they were eventually beaten by Real Madrid at Wembley Stadium. Sancho returned to Manchester United this summer but it appears as if his future lies elsewhere.

It’s claimed that Juventus will make their first official offer to the Red Devils in the next few hours. Their aim is to sign him on loan, with Ten Hag’s side covering part of his salary. Chelsea, however, are also preparing a swap deal including Raheem Sterling to head to Old Trafford.
Transfermarkt values Sancho at €30m (£25.2m) and it is thought both clubs have first proposed a loan deal, with sources close to FourFourTwo indicating that Manchester United wish to push ahead with a full sale to better help their position when it comes to the Premier League's Profit and Sustainability Rulings.

FourFourTwo thinks it would be best for all parties if Sancho was to seek pastures new this summer, given his troubled past at the Theatre of Dreams ever since his high-profile falling out with Ten Hag last season.
A move to Chelsea would make some sense, but Italy would also be considered an interesting destination. Juventus selling Federico Chiesa opens up the possibility of Sancho joining.
