Manchester United are said to be close to agreeing to a deal with Paris Saint-Germain for an exchange involving Jadon Sancho, with Marcus Rashford having been mentioned as another prospective target for the French giants.

PSG appears to be open to a trade, with Sancho eager to transfer to the French capital. These talks are part of the continuing discussions around Ugarte, as both teams aim to finalize a deal for the midfielder.
United have identified their defensive midfield as an area that needs for enhancement this summer, with Ugarte is their chosen field target. Ten Hag has been reported to be a great fan of the 23-year-old, and United’s newly formed recruiting team shares the same opinion.
Particularly, Sancho isn’t the only player United have offered to PSG; Rashford has also been mentioned in conversations. Nevertheless, a move is impossible, as the England forward remains intent to ‘nailed down’ at United.
