With tomorrow marking the final day of the transfer window many are asking what will happen with Jadon Sancho. Will he go to Chelsea? Will he end up at Juventus? Or will he remain with Manchester United?
Well Chelsea and Juventus are still keen to battle it out for the star, neither wanting to miss out on their man.
Juve have submitted their initial bid for a loan offer, whilst Chelsea and United are working on two separate deals to see Sancho move to Stamford Bridge and Raheem Sterling go the other way.

Whilst Juventus are hoping to secure the English winger, they are also starting to look at Plan B’s in case they lose out in the dying moments of the transfer season.
As a result, Calcio Mercato have reported that the Serie A side are turning to Germany to look at an alternative to the United attacker.
The report explains that Juve’s sporting director, Cristiano Giuntoli, is keeping options open for new manager Thiago Motta. The pair are now looking at Bayer Leverkusen’s Amine Adli in case the Sancho deal goes south.
The left-winger came through the Toulouse youth academy and joined the senior squad in 2019. Then two years later joined Leverkusen for €7.5 million. Now, his versatility is being shown, with the Morocco international playing on both wings, in attacking midfield and as a striker.
In the 117 matches he’s played for the German club, Adli’s scored 21 goals and got 22 assists, helping the club with the Bundesliga, DFB-Pokal and DFL-Supercup.
Leverkusen are expected to want €25 million for the winger, which would make him a cheaper option than Sancho.
With Aldi having a double passport for Morocco and France, being born in Beziers, France and playing for the France Under-18s and Under-21s, Juve would be able to register the winger as an EU player, avoiding the league’s limits around non-EU players.
