Chelsea are considering competing with Juventus for the signing of Jadon Sancho, a source has told ESPN.
Manchester United are willing to let the striker leave before Friday's transfer deadline. Juventus have held talks with United but so far no deal has been reached.
Sancho, according to a source, is one of the options that Chelsea are considering in the final week of the window.
The 24-year-old is yet to feature for United so far this season after being omitted from the squad for games against Fulham and Brighton.
He rejoined Old Trafford this summer after spending the second half of last season on loan at Borussia Dortmund.
Sancho came on as a late substitute in the Community Shield defeat to Manchester City but has not played a competitive game for United for a year following his public clash with manager Erik ten Hag in August 2023.
United would prefer to secure a permanent move for Sancho but clubs have so far been unwilling to match his valuation of around £40m ($52.8m).
Sancho's salary of more than £300,000 a week is also an obstacle.
He has two years left on his contract with the player he signed when he joined from Dortmund for £73m in 2021.
United have not ruled out reaching an initial loan agreement for Sancho, provided there is an option or obligation to make the transfer permanent at the end of the campaign.
Meanwhile, Scott McTominay is in talks with Napoli after United agreed a £25million fee with the Italian side on Sunday.
If the midfielder decides to join Antonio Conte's side, sources have told ESPN that it will give United greater flexibility in their negotiations to bring in Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Manuel Ugarte.
PSG have been hoping to receive a fee of around £50m for the Uruguay international to recoup the money spent to sign him from Sporting last summer.
