Juventus continues to 'comb' the market in search of alternatives to Federico Chiesa, one of the reinforcements that sounds the most strongly for FC Barcelona. Apparently, the 'bianconeri' board would have set its sights on another old culé goal

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Both FC Barcelona and Juventus continue to evaluate alternatives for the left side in the final stretch of the summer market. In Turin they hope to place Federico Chiesa in the Barça team before August 30, with which they will be able to go for another striker that Thiago Motta likes. The new 'bianconeri' coach sentenced the Genoese and had already given the green light to a Manchester United player to reinforce his attack. 

According to the latest information, the 'Vecchia Signora' will go for Jadon Sancho in the next few hours to fill the gap that the Italian international will leave in the squad. In principle, the 'red devils' prioritize a sale of around 30 million euros to let the English forward go, but they will finally resign themselves to negotiating a new loan, just as happened last summer with the return of the London forward. to Borussia Dortmund.

Sancho has scored 3 goals and 3 assists in 21 games last season in Germany and was one of the 'low cost' alternatives that Barça considered at the beginning of the summer in terms of left-footed wingers. However, Chiesa has gained in the culés' plans after Nico Williams' "no", with which the three clubs can finalize the change of cards this week, although the operations aim to leave United less satisfied.

Juventus will go for Sancho once Chiesa's departure closes

In that sense, Juve is willing to reinvest the proceeds from the transfer of Federico Chiesa in the loan of the English international. In principle, the 'bianconeri' board expects to earn 15 million euros net from the sale, although Barça will seek to reduce the total to around €10-12M. In any case, the culés will not negotiate for the Italian winger until they close a couple of pending departures (Mika Faye and Vitor Roque), in addition to Clément Lenglet, the main headache for the board in the last weeks of the summer market.
