“I still think there is an allure about United.”
Chelsea are another club who are interested in signing Sancho.
European football expert Guillem Balague believes United are currently leading the race for him but doubts whether clubs, in the current financial climate, will want to pay a fee of over £100million for him.
“I think Manchester United are ahead of Chelsea to get Sancho because it does look like that plan they had to actually reinvigorate their side, get young players, develop them and get them better, seems to be, or was going at, a decent pace,” Balague said on his YouTube channel.
