Jadon Sancho to Napoli? England Winger Linked with Serie A Move to Rejoin McTominay

Napoli are making waves in the transfer market again, this time turning their attention to Manchester United’s Jadon Sancho, in a potential reunion with former teammate Scott McTominay. The Serie A champions, under new boss Antonio Conte, are aggressively bolstering their squad for a serious UEFA Champions League push after conquering Italian football. Following the recent marquee signing of Kevin De Bruyne, the addition of Sancho would signal another statement of ambition from the Neapolitan side.

Sancho, once a £72.9 million signing for Manchester United in 2021, has struggled to consistently deliver at Old Trafford. A fallout with then-manager Erik ten Hag last season led to a loan spell at Chelsea, where the winger began to rediscover some of his old spark. Though his numbers—five goals and ten assists across all competitions—show signs of revival, they weren’t enough for Chelsea to activate the £25 million purchase clause, settling instead for a £5 million compensation to return him to Manchester.

Now, Napoli are reportedly exploring a loan with an option to buy, a deal structure that may suit all parties. With Sancho still only 25, and the 2026 World Cup on the horizon, a move to Serie A could be pivotal in rekindling his form and reestablishing him in Gareth Southgate’s plans. Conte’s vision of bringing Premier League talents to the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium could also include McTominay, whom Napoli have shown previous interest in.

Should the deal materialize, Sancho would join an increasingly Premier League-flavored Napoli side poised for a European breakthrough. His creativity and versatility on the wing could prove crucial in both domestic and continental competitions.
