PSG continue to pursue Jadon Sancho as Man Utd exit looms with swap deal on the cards

Paris Saint-Germain are stepping up their efforts to sign Jadon Sancho, with the Manchester United winger’s exit from Old Trafford looking increasingly likely.

Despite some conflicting reports, it seems the French giants are determined to bring Sancho to the Parc des Princes before the transfer window closes.

Recent reports from France suggest that PSG remains very much in the race to sign Sancho, despite earlier claims that the club had ended their pursuit following the signing of Desire Doue.

According to L'Equipe , PSG are still actively working on a deal for the 23-year-old Englishman, who has been a priority for the club’s management throughout the summer.

Swap deal with Ugarte on the table

Luis Enrique and PSG’s sporting director, Luís Campos, have been searching for a winger who can add both creativity and efficiency to the team, and Sancho fits that bill. The potential move could also involve a swap deal, with Manchester United eyeing PSG midfielder Manuel Ugarte as part of the arrangement.

Ugarte, who has recently been informed that he is not in Luis Enrique’s plans, could be on his way to Manchester as part of the negotiations. This development boosts United's hopes of securing the Uruguayan midfielder, either as part of the Sancho deal or in a separate transfer.

As the transfer deadline approaches, PSG's pursuit of Sancho could gain momentum, especially with both clubs keen on finding solutions that benefit their squads. For Sancho, a move to Paris might offer a fresh start, while United could strengthen their midfield with the addition of Ugarte.

The coming days will be crucial as both clubs work to finalize these potential deals.
