Andre Onana is struggling at Man Utd | Football Digest
Manchester United stars Jadon Sancho and Donny van de Beek are both reportedly nearing January moves to Juventus, as Erik ten Hag continues clearing out unwanted players at Old Trafford. The pair have not been favoured by the Dutchman and the Red Devils are keen to move them on, with the Italian club proving a popular landing spot.
TEAMTalk have claimed that Juventus are keen on signing both Sancho and Van de Beek to put an end to their misery at United. The former Borussia Dortmund winger has publicly fallen out with Ten Hag and after refusing to apologise for going against his boss on social media, has been ousted from the squad.
Van de Beek starred for Ten Hag at Ajax but has been unable to find that form once again in England. He has rarely been used since recovering from a long-term knee injury and both players exiting could free up some valuable room on the wage bill, with the club still being forced to consider Financial Fair Play ahead of the upcoming transfer window.
United had previously turned down the option to loan Sancho out to Saudi Arabia shortly after the Premier League summer transfer window closed, despite training away from the team. He is higher up on Juventus’ wish list and a compromise may have to be made to sign Sancho permanently for a fee in the region of £30m in order to loan Van de Beek.

United attempted to loan Van de Beek to Real Sociedad late in the summer window but the two clubs could not agree on a deal. As his contract runs until 2026, the Red Devils may be open once again to a loan with the option or obligation of a permanent move in January.
United are looking to make as many as four additions in January and will be keen to offload fringe players such as Sancho and Van de Beek to help accommodate those signings. Neither player has made a start for United this season, combining for four substitute appearances and they are unlikely to get increased minutes before the January window opens.

Raphael Varane has been another United player linked with a move to Juventus, having fallen down the pecking order under Ten Hag in recent weeks, but they could be forced to wait until the summer.
Ten Hag will be wary of losing a centre-half option mid-season given their issues in that role throughout the campaign.
Even though the likes of Harry Maguire, Jonny Evans and Victor Lindelof have been preferred ahead of Varane, if he does wish to join the likes of Sancho and Van de Veek at Juventus then that could take place a few more months down the line.
