Galatasaray tipped to bid for Sancho
Jadon Sancho's future looks up in the air.
But the Manchester United winger - on loan at Chelsea - could be offered an escape route from the Premier League by a surprising source.
Galatasaray are reportedly lining up a bid for the 25-year-old Englishman.
It comes after the Sun revealed Chelsea are ready to pay United a £5million 'penalty fee' to avoid turning his season-long stay into a permanent move.
The Blues would otherwise have to pay around £20-£25million to buy him - because finishing 15th or above in the Prem triggers a deal.

Manchester United, Spurs and Arsenal fans are heading to Bilbao on a 32-hour ferry trip ahead of Wednesday night's Europa League final, writes DAVE COURTNADGE.
Hundreds of supporters joined holidaymakers for the epic boat ride which left Portsmouth at 10pm on Sunday and doesn't arrive until 8am Tuesday morning.
With flights to Spain rocketing to over £1,000 after United and Spurs sealed their places in the final, many took advantage of the cheaper, but much longer, ferry option, which costs around £260 with a cabin.
And some were even looking forward to their time at sea more than watching the game itself.
Lifelong United follower Dave, from Derby, is one of many who haven't even got a match ticket, but called the journey a "bucket list trip".
He added: "The way our lot have been playing I'm more excited about the boat anyway.
"I didn't buy a cabin originally but then I didn't fancy sitting in a seat for two days."
Others have been planning the trip for months, including father and son Tottenham fans Neil and Leo, who booked their ferry tickets and hotel in Bilbao in AUGUST.
