Juventus remain interested in Sancho
Latest from Sky Sports News reporter Dharmesh Sheth:
Juventus remain interested in signing Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho.
It's thought they will have to sell players first to have a chance of meeting Man Utd's £40m valuation.
Borussia Dortmund would also like to sign him after his successful loan spell at the backend of last season, where he was a part of the side that reached the Champions League final.
But there is still a substantial gap between what Man Utd want and what Dortmund can afford.
Sancho has entered the final two years of his contract.

Neville: Composed Ashworth will help Ten Hag at Man Utd
Gary Neville believes the appointment of Dan Ashworth will steady the ship for Manchester United, and give Erik ten Hag, who signed a new deal at Old Trafford earlier this week, a better chance of succeeding at the club.
"It was a miserable season for Man Utd in the Premier League and if Ten Hag hadn’t won the FA Cup final he’d have been in big trouble," Neville told Sky Sports News.
"Winning against Man City, two trophies in two years. Man Utd flirted with other managers and decided they couldn’t find someone who could do the job better than Ten Hag.
"I’m happy in the end he stayed. He’s been given another contract to give him some strength. He had one year left and the idea of this ticking clock, we’d be asking him the question and the club every 10 minutes [if he only had a year on his contract].
"He’ll have to perform this season – this doesn’t let him off the hook. But I’m hopeful all the appointments around ETH - obviously the new CEO but particularly Dan Ashworth who brings composure, a key person in building the foundations of the new England look – we won’t get a situation where Man Utd are panicking in a transfer window and shooting from the hip as they have done in years gone by.
"It will be more measured. If they can’t get who they want they won’t buy anyone. They will make sure they’re quite focused and precise in what they do moving forward which should give Ten Hag more stability and advice around him which hopefully will help him."
Who will be at Man Utd next season!? De Ligt, Rashford, Zirkzee?

Giovanni Sartori, Bologna's sporting director, said earlier this week that Zirkzee will "99.9 per cent leave this summer".
Discussions continue with Bayern Munich over a fee for De Ligt, who the German club value at £42.5m plus add-ons.
