At Brighton and Hove Albion on Saturday, Manchester United lost 2-1, and Erik ten Hag was unable to make it two wins from two.
The initial elation following the victory over Fulham has subsided following a downright absurd winning goal on the South Coast.

With the Amex Stadium all to himself, Joao Pedro scored a late victory to send Manchester United to defeat.

Now that the transfer window is back in the spotlight, Manchester United needs to get some work done because the deadline is drawing near.

Jadon Sancho to Chelsea swap

Scott McTominay is expected to leave Manchester United for Napoli, which will lead to the introduction of a new midfield player at Old Trafford.

After weeks of conjecture, Fabrizio Romano asserts that Manuel Ugarte is now prepared to depart and sign with Manchester United.
The Uruguayan is nearing a permanent agreement, and Manchester United is prepared to reinvest the money that McTominay left behind.

However, there might be more action because winger Jadon Sancho is reportedly drawing interest, according to Sky Sports writer Dharmesh Sheth.

Sancho is still a top priority for Juventus, but Sheth says Chelsea is considering a possible trade.

Sheth made no mention of possible candidates, although Ben Chilwell and Raheem Sterling are reportedly on the table, according to Gianluca Di Marzio of Sky Italia.

According to reports from last week, Chilwell was reportedly offered to Manchester United despite the left back position's continuing problems.

He and Sterling are being handed up to Manchester United in exchange for Sancho after it was informed to them both that they have no future at Stamford Bridge.

It's unclear how Sancho fits into a team that already includes Nicolas Jackson, Cole Palmer, Mykhailo Mudryk, Pedro Neto, Joao Felix, Christopher Nkunku, and Noni Madueke, but that won't matter to Manchester United.

Sancho exit on the cards

After an ugly fight with Ten Hag nearly a year ago, Sancho was kicked out of the Manchester United first team.

Sancho was brought back into the Manchester United team this summer following a loan at Borussia Dortmund.

Yet Sancho's future at Manchester United still appears grim, after he was left out of the squad to play Brighton and Fulham.

Sancho, who acknowledged to TalkSPORT in 2021 that he was a Blues supporter growing up, would love to move to Chelsea.

When asked who his England hero was, Sancho replied, "I'd probably say Frank Lampard." "It's true that I grew up as a Chelsea fan! Frank Lampard and Didier Drogba were my two favorite players at the moment.

"I adore Frank Lampard's style of play; he was calm and direct when he had the ball. He said, "I like things like that."

Sancho would undoubtedly rejoice at the chance to transfer to Stamford Bridge, but it's unclear if Manchester United would be interested in Chilwell and Sterling, two players who have recently struggled for consistency.

On Sunday, Maresca's team defeated Wolves 6-2 on the road. Mykhailo Mudryk, Cole Palmer, and Noni Madueke were positioned behind scorer Nicolas Jackson.

fresh hires Christopher Nkunku, Pedro Neto, and Joao Felix were brought in from the bench during the second half.

At Molineux, Madueke scored a hat-trick in the second half, and Jackson, Palmer, and Felix also found the net as Chelsea won their first Premier League game under Maresca.
