AS Roma are in talks with Manchester United over a permanent deal for Jadon Sancho, sources have told ESPN. Sancho has been told by United to find a new club before the transfer deadline. The 25-year-old has spent the last 18 months on loan -- first at Borussia Dortmund and then Chelsea-- and was omitted from the squad for the summer tour of the United States.
