Chelsea are reportedly edging closer on a deal to sign Jadon Sancho on loan with a buy option from Manchester United ahead of the transfer window deadline.
Over the past several weeks, the England international has attracted a lot of attention from teams throughout Europe, with Chelsea and Juventus showing a special desire to capture the Manchester United winger. The Bianconeri are believed to have pull out of the deal leaving Chelsea the only club in the running.
Sancho, a longtime Blues supporter, may soon move to London. But there are two requirements that must be met before that can happen.
To help with the financial strain of another busy summer of spending at Stamford Bridge, the clubs are reportedly in talks to sign a loan-to-buy agreement. However, according to TeamTalk as cited by FourFourTwo, United’s demands of a buy option would have to be reduced in order to close a deal.
Although, the clubs might still consider the possibility of an exchange. Raheem Sterling is thought to be the most probable player to go in the opposite direction.

One main bone of contention in the negotiations thus far has been the Red Devils’ alleged demands for a fee in the region of €40 million. In addition to a sizable wage contribution, in order to finalize a deal.
Although the conditions of the agreement are still pending. Sancho is thought to favor a move to West London in an effort to put an end to his unsatisfactory stay in the northwest. So there shouldn’t be any issues.
