Man United winger Jadon Sancho is keen on joining Roma, who have tabled a loan offer with an option to buy, according to journalist Fabrizio Romano.
The £20m purchase clause in the proposal for the 25-year-old will reportedly be triggered on conditions that are easy to achieve.
Unsurprisingly, supporters on X are actively encouraging United and Sancho to accept the move:

20 is ridiculous but what can United do but take the beating and move on.

With his massive wages as well, I was only expecting around £15m for him. £20m + his £300k a week wages gone would be decent business.

Bro £20M is a steal at this point

We shouldn’t ask any questions. We should just sell. Maybe, just maybe haggle and try and get 30 tbh.

Lets do this! Move on

Sancho has had other offers from Italy that have gone nowhere
One note of caution about this deal is that Juventus and Napoli were also heavily linked with the forward earlier this summer but it was claimed that the player’s wage demands were an issue.
We shall have to wait and see whether Roma will have the same problems if they hold talks with Sancho and his agent.
Man United are slowly dispersing the ‘bomb squad’
Heading into the summer, there were five players in the first-team squad that were not part of Ruben Amorim’s plans.
Marcus Rashford has moved on loan to Barcelona, and it now appears that Sancho could make the switch to Italy.
That leaves Antony, Alejandro Garnacho and Tyrell Malacia all still looking for new teams, although there is hope that at least one of them will be leaving Old Trafford very soon.
Garnacho has agreed personal terms with Chelsea, and there is optimism that an agreement over a transfer fee can be reached as well.
