Hide AdJuventus ‘considering’ loan move for Jadon Sancho
Juventus have had a long standing interest in Jadon Sancho this summer - while they failed to bring him on board on a permanent basis, the Old Lady could instead seek a loan deal for the former Borussia Dortmund ace.
This is according to a recent report from Italian outlet Gianluca Di Marzio. Sancho’s wage demands have proven to be an issue for Juventus in this transfer saga - by opting for a loan deal instead, they could find a way to bypass this particular obstacle.
Paul Scholes identifies ‘problem’ with Manchester United’s approach
Manchester United’s style of play under Erik ten Hag has been criticised by several pundits - now, United legend Paul Scholes thinks he has found the underlying issue. He believes United need to be more patient with their approach, rather than ‘constantly attacking’.
Speaking on The Overlap, Scholes mused: “The problem with United is that every time they have the ball, they are trying to attack, which isn’t a good thing. You sometimes need five minutes on the ball to help take the sting out of the game, but constantly attacking, results in end-to-end football.
“If you look at Manchester City and their midfield, they take the sting out of the play and kill opposition teams that way, but with United, there is so much chaos with players running everywhere.”
