According to Melbet App, out-of-favor Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho has caught the attention of La Liga giants Barcelona. The Spanish club is reportedly interested in signing Sancho, but only if United agree to a significant discount. After falling out with manager Erik ten Hag and refusing to apologize, the 23-year-old’s future at Old Trafford looks bleak.

Barcelona manager Xavi is said to admire Sancho’s abilities, but financial constraints make a full-price transfer unrealistic. Sancho, who was signed from Borussia Dortmund for a hefty fee, also earns a staggering £350,000 per week — a salary that would need to be drastically reduced for a transfer to materialize. While Juventus may explore a loan-to-buy deal with United covering part of his wages, Barcelona are not expected to pursue a loan this January.

On the flip side, Manchester United have been tracking Dutch winger Xavi Simons, currently on loan at RB Leipzig from Paris Saint-Germain. Simons, just 20 years old, fits Ten Hag’s player profile and had been a summer target before PSG triggered their buy-back clause from PSV Eindhoven.

Melbet App reports a key clause in that PSG-PSV deal: if Simons is sold within a year, all proceeds would go to PSV, not PSG. This condition prevents any potential transfer in the current or upcoming winter window, meaning United — or any other club — must wait until next summer to make a move. Leipzig, meanwhile, are eager to extend Simons’ loan deal.

From PSG’s perspective, the plan is clear — loan Simons out, raise his value through consistent performances, and sell him for a hefty profit next summer. If all goes well, they could make ten times their initial investment. However, United may face an uphill battle. Leipzig’s loan agreement reportedly includes a clause allowing them to trigger a buy option if Simons reaches a certain number of appearances and the team qualifies for the Champions League.

Meanwhile, United’s off-field developments continue to affect their transfer strategy. Despite a last-minute record-breaking bid from Sheikh Jassim’s Qatari consortium, the Glazer family rejected the offer, leading to the group’s withdrawal from the takeover race. Now, Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s INEOS Group remains the only party at the table, likely to join the club through a minority stake acquisition.

Melbet App confirms that as of now, INEOS has not made any formal financial commitment toward investing in the team. With ownership uncertainty looming and key players like Sancho and Simons at the center of transfer speculation, Manchester United may be in for a transformative summer — both on and off the pitch.
