Nottingham Forest has reportedly entered the pursuit of Manchester United`s sidelined winger, Jadon Sancho, even as Juventus continues its negotiations for the player.

The English club reportedly views Sancho as an ideal successor to Anthony Elanga, who recently moved to Newcastle United.

Despite this, Juventus maintains a strong stance, having already reached a purported agreement on personal terms with Sancho.

Speculation suggests that Juventus is offering a lower fee to the Premier League club, acknowledging that Sancho`s substantial wage demands will significantly impact their budget.

Consequently, the involvement of a well-funded English club, buoyed by recent player sales, could represent the final hurdle for the Old Lady in securing the former Borussia Dortmund talent.
