Man United's pursuit of Jadon Sancho
Man United legend Phil Neville believes that Jadon Sancho will be a perfect match for the Red Devils. Neville showed his faith in the youngster and thinks that he has the right calibre to follow the footsteps of Cristiano Ronaldo and David Beckham. Phil Neville, while talking with The Webby & O’Neill Podcast, said “I think the right-hand side is the biggest area where we need to improve. An out-and-out winger. “You think about the great Man United sides, Beckham, [Andrei] Kanchelskis… Ronaldo played out there, Ole Gunnar played on the right-hand side. “I think the right-hand side is the one big hole in the squad. “Sancho can play out there and play really well."

Man Utd always wanted to pay him using ‘add ons’ and ‘installments’ after virus. Still no agreement but talks on.
Personal terms are not a problem - his contract would be until June 2025. 🔴 #MUFC
