rel=\"noopener\">Napoli were interested in Sancho<\/a>,\u00a0but that move has not progressed, with Sancho\u2019s huge wages seemingly a problem.<\/p>\n<p>Reports from Italy suggested that <a

want Sancho<\/a> and were willing to offer two players to United.<\/p>\n<p>Midfielder Douglas Luiz and striker Dusan Vlahovic were both on offer to United, and another name has entered the mix.<\/p>\n<p>Fabrizio Romano has told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.givemesport.com\/exclusive-manchester-united-offered-500000-a-week-trio-in-sancho-swap-deal-fabrizio-romano\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Give Me Sport<\/a> that Juventus have made United aware of Timothy Weah\u2019s availability during talks for Sancho.<\/p>\n<p>Luiz and Vlahovic are again mentioned, but this is the first suggestion of Weah being offered up to United.<\/p>\n<p>So far, United have not taken the chance to move for Weah, but Juventus are keen to come up with a creative solution.<\/p>\n<p>Juve don\u2019t want to pay Sancho\u2019s wages in full and seemingly want to send a player to Old Trafford in exchange.<\/p>\n<p>Weah\u2019s availability has been raised to United, but whether Amorim has any interest remains to be seen.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Timothy Weah profiled<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Weah is the son of former AC Milan star George Weah, who won the Ballon d\u2019Or in 1995.<\/p>\n<p>Born in Brooklyn back in 2000, Weah started in the New York Red Bulls ranks before joining Paris Saint-Germain in 2014.<\/p>\n<p>Weah only made six first-team appearances for PSG but scored twice, showing some potential as a striker or wide forward.<\/p>\n<p>A loan spell to Celtic brought mixed returns before PSG sold Weah to Lille in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>Juventus pounced for Weah after more than 100 Lille appearances, and the Turin giants have now converted him into a right wing-back or right-back.<\/p>\n<p>Weah chipped in with five Serie A goals this past season and has now notched 44 caps for the United States.<\/p>\n<p>Juventus midfielder Manuel Locatelli has branded Weah \u2018very fast\u2019, as quoted by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goal.com\/en-gb\/news\/timothy-flies-manuel-locatelli-backs-good-boy-weah-big-impact-juventus-usmnt-star-blistering-pace\/bltec1204b17f9ecf34\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Goal<\/a>, and his attacking ability as a wing-back could appeal to Amorim.<\/p>\n<p>United play with wing-backs under Amorim and Weah could become competition for Diogo Dalot on the right flank.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s still difficult to imagine United taking Weah in an exchange for Sancho, but he is a name for Amorim to weigh up.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Manchester United are hoping to find a buyer for Jadon Sancho this summer, and Juventus could emerge
