Romano Provides Big Update On Man Utd Chase Of ‘fantastic’ LaLiga Winger As Ten Hag Eyes Sancho Upgrade
Romano provides big update on Man Utd chase of ‘fantastic’ LaLiga winger as Ten Hag eyes Sancho upgrade
Fabrizio Romano has ruled Manchester United out of a move for Real Sociedad winger Takefusa Kubo, as Erik ten Hag eyes a new winger.
Jadon Sancho has been banished from the Red Devil’s first-team squad after falling out with Ten Hag, and now the manager wants to bring in a replacement for him.
Recent reports have suggested that Man Utd are willing to make a significant loss on Sancho, who they signed for £73m in 2021. Juventus are considered to be favourites to sign the 23-year-old in January.
One player who Man Utd have been linked with is Kubo. The 22-year-old was previously heralded as a wonderkid and earned a move to Real Madrid from FC Tokyo when aged just 18 back in 2019.
The left-footed right winger never lived up to the hype at the Bernabeu, spending the entirety of his time with Los Blancos out on loan to various Spanish sides.
However, since joining Real Sociedad in a permanent deal one year ago, Kubo has taken giant strides forward and is now a genuine threat from out wide.
