The Mirror reports that Barcelona are the latest team to be linked with a swoop for Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho.

The paper writes: “Barcelona are weighing up a shock loan move for Manchester United cast-off Jadon Sancho in the January transfer window.

“Winger Sancho took to social media to refute boss Erik ten Hag’s claim he was left out of the squad for United’s 3-1 defeat at Arsenal because of poor training performances. Sancho was banished from first-team training by Ten Hag and was dropped for United’s game against Brighton on Saturday.

“Sancho’s spell at Old Trafford has been underwhelming since completing his move from Borussia Dortmund in the summer of 2021. He had emerged as one of the stars in the Bundesliga but has failed to replicate that form at United.

“They struggled to register loan signings Joao Cancelo and Joao Felix late in the summer transfer window, with further outgoings required before any new players arrive. It would appear fanciful that they could fund Sancho’s wages this season without at least one major departure.”
