Club Director Sets Bold Ultimatum for Blockbuster Jadon Sancho Deal

Juventus sporting director Damien Comolli has stated the club will only pursue Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho if they manage to offload another attacking player beforehand.

Discussions between Juventus, Sancho and United seemed to be progressing favorably earlier in the summer before it became apparent that the Italian giants had placed a potential deal "on standby" while they focused on restructuring their squad.

Wide players Francisco Conceiçao and Nico González have already arrived on permanent transfers this summer, and Comolli acknowledged Juventus must create room before they can chase Sancho.

"I believe the club holds great appeal; numerous agents and players are contacting me," Comolli informed reporters when questioned about a possible Sancho acquisition. "Ultimately, we are Juventus, and we aim to return to our winning tradition.

"Making Conceição's stay permanent was a decisive and strategic choice since he's capable of operating on either flank. We possess two of the finest wingers globally, and Nico is an exceptional talent. Should anyone depart, we would evaluate him [Sancho]."

Juventus are seeking to move several offensive players. Forward Dušan Vlahović is open to transfer discussions, and reports suggest González might also exit this summer, despite joining last season on loan with a mandatory purchase clause for 2025.

American international Tim Weah remains on the periphery of the team and is currently involved in a public disagreement with Juventus regarding his future. Comolli called for "respect" from the 25-year-old concerning his wish to depart and join Marseille.

As Juventus work to resolve their surplus of attacking options, Sancho has reportedly reached out to former club Borussia Dortmund to propose his services to the German outfit at a discounted price.
