As a five-club transfer fight breaks out, Jose Mourinho says yes to the spectacular Man Utd raid, according to sources.

According to Thesportmoment, Fenerbahce has jumped into the battle for Manchester United star Jadon Sancho, and Jose Mourinho is eager to sign the winger.

We know that in order to ascertain the terms of a potential transfer, the Turkish club has begun discussions with Manchester United and the player's representation.

Prior to the middle of June, Fenerbahce made their initial club-to-club contact, and since May, they have been secretly negotiating a deal.

Sancho's possible signing has been approved by Jose Mourinho, and the Turkish powerhouses are making every effort to finalise a deal.

But there are two major challenges. First, other clubs are showing a lot of interest in the 25-year-old.

Sancho's former team, Borussia Dortmund, as well as Napoli, AC Milan, Aston Villa, and a few Saudi Pro League clubs, have expressed interest in him, as Thesportmoment reported on June 17.

The fact that Manchester United is willing to sell for about £30 million has been communicated to potential suitors.

Given that The Red Devils acknowledge they will not be able to recover the staggering £73 million they paid on him in 2021, this amount may be negotiable.

To sign a Manchester United star, Fenerbahce is working hard.

According to Thesportmoment, Sancho's £30 million price tag has piqued the interest of suitors, and the winger may make a permanent move from Old Trafford this summer.

Sancho's salary demands are the main barrier facing Fenerbahce and other interested teams. 

The 23-time England international's contract with Manchester United is set to expire next summer, and he presently makes an estimated £300,000 a week.

During his loan at Stamford Bridge last season, Chelsea partially paid this salary. According to information obtained by Thesportmoment, Sancho is asking for €12 million (£10.3 million or $13.8 million) annually for his next contract, which is around £200,000 per week.

This is also one of the main reasons Chelsea chose to pay a £5 million fee to avoid having to pay the full £25 million required to purchase Sancho under the terms of their loan arrangement. 

Negotiations are extremely difficult because this is a substantial number for Fenerbahce, even though it is a significant drop from his existing terms. 

However, as previously stated, discussions with the player's entourage have been going on for over a month, and both parties are attempting to reach an agreement. Fenerbahce is optimistic and committed to persevering through the challenges.
