Maligned Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho could leave Old Trafford on a loan deal in the January transfer window [via the Daily Mail]. The Red Devils are even willing to subsidise his wages to allow a move to take place - and Arsenal are believed to be interested.

Sancho is on a £300,000 per week deal at United - but any club wishing to take him in on loan may only have to pay a fraction of this, if the Daily Mail’s reports are to be believed. Currently, it is unclear as to how much of Sancho’s wages United would be willing to subsidise.

Moreover, clubs seem unwilling to bring Sancho on board on a permanent basis - the Red Devils paid £73 million to Borussia Dortmund to bring him to the club and have now put an asking price of £60 million on his head.

Who else, besides Arsenal, have been linked with a move for Jadon Sancho?

Arsenal are not the only club who have been linked with a move for the 23-year-old - the Mail writes that both Juventus and his old club, Dortmund, are interested in a loan move for Sancho. However, as mentioned earlier, neither wish to sign him permanently.

In addition to this, Barcelona are also thought to be interested in the former Watford academy starlet [via Sport]. The Catalonian giants are currently lacking in left-wingers - the acquisition of Sancho would be a good way to temporarily fill this hole in their squad.

Is Jadon Sancho’s time at Manchester United over?

As things stand, all signs seem to point towards the notion that Sancho has played his last game at Manchester United. There has been no effort to re-integrate him into the squad, as he appears to have completely fallen out of the picture.

His relationship with manager Erik ten Hag appears to have reached a point of untenability - as such, he should be moved on as soon as possible, as this will allow United to nip any building toxicity in the bud.
