Over the last week, news of Paris Saint-Germain targeting Jadon Sancho has grown and grown.
PSG are preparing for their first Ligue 1 campaign without Kyllian Mbappe, and the French champions have highlighted Sancho as they key replacement.
The Ligue 1 side have already contact Sancho offering him a contract, with the winger excited at the opportunity PSG are presenting.
Manchester United have equally been advancing their pursuit of Manuel Ugarte over the last month, with the Premier League club agreeing personal terms with the Uruguayan.
With both clubs looking for sales and signings from each other, the teams clearly have a lot to discuss.
Now, reports from France suggest a deal may be stuck this week.
Manchester United and PSG seniors set to meet
X account PSGINSIDE-ACTUS has reported that the two clubs are set to meet in the middle of this week to discuss Manuel Ugarte and Jadon Sancho.
The announcement expressed that despite Sancho being back in Erik ten Hag’s good books, the winger is keen for a fresh start away from Old Trafford and wants to join PSG.
The French champions are also keen to conclude the transfer as quick as possible which may see United benefit from this with the Ugarte deal.
United have been stalling on the Ugarte deal, with Dan Ashworth confident that PSG will lower their price tag on the midfielder as deadline day looms nearer. The defensive midfielder is not expected to be a key part of Luis Enrique’s plans at the French capital. It’s believed that the French club may decided it’s more beneficial to sell the star for a reduced fee, than to pay his wages to ultimately have him sat on the bench.
With PSG so keen on signing Sancho, United could play clever and use it to their benefit when negotiating for Ugarte.
