Sancho Blocks Manchester United Swap Deal to Sign Emi Martinez
Manchester United’s hopes of landing Argentina goalkeeper Emi Martinez on deadline day collapsed after Jason Sancho blocked a proposed swap deal.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano revealed that United and Aston Villa discussed a straight exchange, with both players valued at around £25 million. However, Sancho’s insistence on leaving Old Trafford only on loan, rather than a permanent move, brought negotiations to a halt.
The winger, who is not in manager Ruben Amorim’s plans, had spent last season on loan at Chelsea and was keen on staying in west London permanently. But the Blues couldn’t reach an agreement and instead paid a £5 million penalty to send him back to United.
Sancho later explored options in Serie A before Aston Villa made a late attempt to bring him in on loan, but the deal fell through, shutting the door on United’s ambitious move for Martinez.
Manchester United have released a list of players who are expected to leave the club during the summer transfer window.
A statement from the club listed the players as Jadon Sancho, Casemiro, Tyrell Malacia, Sonny Aljofree, James Bailey, and Malachi Sharpe.
It was noted that Casemiro enjoyed a strong season at the club and built an excellent reputation during his time with the team.
Meanwhile, Tyrell Malacia made 50 first-team appearances for Manchester United during his spell at the club.
Liverpool have released a list of players who are confirmed to leave the club this summer.
The list includes star players Mohamed Salah, Andy Robertson, and Ibrahima Konaté. While some players are leaving, others have been offered new contracts.
The players who have been offered fresh terms include Kyle Kelly, Afolami Onanuga, Oliver O’Connor, Lucas Pitt, Ben Trueman, Matthew Wright, Prince Cisse, and Keyrol Figueroa.
Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has urged Ademola Lookman to consider a move to Galatasaray.
It can be noted that Lookman recently completed a transfer to Atlético Madrid, and since then, many European clubs have shown interest in the player.
Osimhen then shared an encouraging message to the player, stating that he would be welcome at Galatasaray.
“We are waiting for you at Galatasaray. Come and be a part of this family.”
