Fenerbahce ‘not in active’ talks to sign Jadon Sancho

Napoli and Juventus have expressed interest in Sancho

Turkish giants Fenerbahce are not in talks to sign Manchester United forward Jadon Sancho this summer, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.

Man United would prefer to sell Sancho permanently than loan him out again. He is valued at around £25m.

Napoli and Juventus have expressed interest in Sancho, who has one year left on his remaining contract.

Romano posted on X: “Fenerbahçe are not in active talks to sign Jadon Sancho as negotiations are not concrete at this stage.

“The main focus is on Jhon Durán now.”

Sancho will leave Chelsea when his contract ends in June after the England international could not agree personal terms with the Blues to make his move permanent this summer.

He moved to Stamford Bridge from United last summer on a season-long loan deal, which included an obligation to buy for up to £25m.

Chelsea will pay £5m to walk away from the deal, and are ready to take that option as they look to reshape their attacking options for next season.

Jadon Sancho made a strong start to life in West London, but his form dipped, and this cast doubt over a long-term stay.

The 25-year-old contributed five goals and 10 assists in 42 appearances for Chelsea across all competitions last season as the Blues clinched the Europa Conference League title by thrashing Real Betis 4-1 in the final with the Englishman on the scoresheet.

Sancho, who previously shone at Dortmund, returned to form during a loan spell there last season before Chelsea took a gamble on him at the end of the summer window.
