Man United transfer news: Jadon Sancho alternatives list features Costa, Bale and Perisic

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's Man United are reportedly considering Douglas Costa, Gareth Bale and Ivan Perisic as alternatives if they fail to sign Jadon Sancho from Dortmund this summer. The Red Devils have long been linked with a move for Sancho but are unwilling to come to terms with Dortmund's asking price for the star winger. Despite not giving up on a move for Sancho, the 20-time English champions are now looking at alternatives to bolster their attacking department as Solskaer is eager to land a wide player at Old Trafford.

Man United transfer news: Jadon Sancho to United in jeopardy?

Multiple reports have linked Jadon Sancho to United this summer as the Red Devils believe that the Dortmund star will be crucial in helping them bridge the gap between Liverpool and Man City in the league table.

Jadon Sancho alternatives: Man United monitoring Ivan Perisic transfer

Reports from ESPN claim that Man United are monitoring a move for Inter Milan star Ivan Perisic. Perisic spent last season on loan with Bayern Munich and helped the Bavarians to a treble of the Bundesliga, DFB-Pokal Cup and Champions League. Although the Croatian is now back at Inter Milan, he is tipped as a target for Solskjaer. Perisic is also likely to be a cheaper option than Sancho and has the experience of winning trophies at a top level.

Real Madrid outcast Gareth Bale publicly announced earlier this month that he would consider a return to the Premier League.
