Juventus' hopes of signing Manchester United outcast Jadon Sancho could receive a serious boost in the coming weeks.

The 23-year-old has fallen out with United boss Erik ten Hag, who no longer wants to keep the Englishman.

Per Tuttosport, a change in United's upper management may benefit Juventus in this situation.

Jean-Claude Blanc is the man that new United investor Sir Jim Ratcliffe wants as his CEO.

Blanc worked at Juventus, which means he would be amenable to dealing with the club.

The Italians are hoping to sign Sancho on an initial loan deal with an option to buy.
