Manchester United 'will have to sell to buy further players if they sign Jadon Sancho'

Manchester United are facing the prospect of having to sell players in order to fund transfers beyond a deal for Jadon Sancho.

United are still eager to sign Borussia Dortmund star Sancho, who would cost around £108m.

As reported by the Evening Standard, if United want to secure further deals then they will have to raise funds by selling players.

The report states that the £46.5million signing of Bruno Fernandes from Sporting Lisbon in January came out of United's summer budget.



Solskjaer wants to make further additions and is targeting a centre-back and a midfielder.

With the financial impact of the coronavirus pandemic taken into consideration, United will have to work hard to increase the amount that they have to spend.

Chris Smalling, who spent the season on loan at Roma, is one player who could depart.

Marcos Rojo, back from a spell with Estudiantes, could also be sold.

Other players who could see their time at United come to an end include Jesse Lingard, Diogo Dalot, Phil Jones and Andreas Pereira.
