Manchester United have received a £20m transfer offer from Roma for England international Jadon Sancho.
Sancho is part of Ruben Amorim’s bomb squad at Old Trafford along with the likes of Alejandro Garnacho and Antony.
The 25-year-old has been in talks with a number of Serie A clubs this summer over a move away from Manchester United.
Roma have jumped to the front of the queue to sign the winger by offering United a permanent deal worth £20m.
Gian Piero Gasperini is determined to secure a move for Sancho and Roma have indicated they are also open to signing him on loan.

Manchester United are yet to respond to the offer but, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Sancho has already given the green light to the move.
Another transfer option for Sancho is Besiktas, who have confirmed interest in a deal, but he does not want to go to Turkey at this stage of his career.
Sancho was hoping to earn a permanent move to Chelsea after spending last season on loan at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea had the option to sign him for £25m but decided instead to pay a £5m penalty to United to send him back to Old Trafford.
