Fabrizio Romano has named Jadon Sancho's potential replacement at Manchester United as the winger nears a January exit.
Sancho, 23, has been ousted from first-team training after refusing to apologise to manager Erik ten Hag following their public feud.
The Englishman was left out of the Red Devils' lineup to face Arsenal last month, with Ten Hag providing an update on the player after their Carabao Cup win over Crystal Palace on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, Sancho was reportedly 'blocked from attending' a recent barbecue hosted by Ten Hag for the rest of the squad.It remains to be seen whether Sancho is able to edge his way back into the United set-up, but his days would appear numbered at Old Trafford.
Spanish giants Barcelona are thought to be interested in the former Borussia Dortmund man, while Premier League rivals Liverpool have been urged to sign him.
If Sancho is to depart in the January transfer window, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has tipped Wolves wide-man Pedro Neto to replace him.
Providing an update on the situation for CaughtOffside, the Italian revealed no decision had been made yet, but Neto would be a 'good opportunity'.“Just one final point on Man United and Jadon Sancho – at the moment there is no significant update to report, and I’m not aware of any decision on a potential new winger signing in January,” Romano said.
“There are many good opportunities around such as Pedro Neto who I’ve already mentioned and who is a fantastic player, but it’s absolutely not sure or guaranteed that Man United will spend big money in January."
Neto was instrumental in Wolves' incredible 2-1 win over Manchester City on the weekend, bursting down the right-hand flank before seeing his shot deflected off Ruben Dias and into the roof of Ederson's net.
Do you think Neto would be a good signing for Manchester United? Let us know in the comments.
