Jadon Sancho has approved Man Utd signing his replacement - 'He's the next one'
Callum Hudson-Odoi is reportedly on the radar of Manchester United and the forward has previously been heaped with praise by his close friend Jadon Sancho Manchester United's Jadon Sancho has previously sang the praises of Callum Hudson-Odoi, who is currently on the radar of United and head coach Ruben Amorim. Sky Sports report that recruitment figures at Old Trafford are keeping a close eye on the 24-year-old Nottingham Forest winger as he contemplates his future at the City Ground. Hudson-Odoi will be keen to stay in Nuno Espirito Santo's plans after Forest ended their 30-year wait for European qualification with a home draw against Leicester City. The forward's contract is up next summer and it's understood that discussions are underway about signing new terms in Nottingham. However, this comes as United reportedly show interest ahead of a busy summer, aiming to revamp their weakest domestic squad in over 50 years, reports the Manchester Evening News. Reports on Wednesday claimed that the club are targeting at least three priority signings, with Matheus Cunha, Liam Delap and a new midfielder on the list. Sancho, who is said to be close to Hudson-Odoi, has had a challenging time at Old Trafford since leaving Borussia Dortmund. The 25-year-old is currently on loan at Chelsea, United's Premier League rivals, and his contract includes an obligation for a permanent move to Stamford Bridge. He has previously spoken highly of Hudson-Odoi, praising his fellow forward's key attacking skills and predicting a bright future for him. Back in 2019, Jadon Sancho famously praised his mate during an interview, saying, "Me and Callum are close friends," and adding, "We've played with each other at England". He went on to big up the Chelsea winger: "He's the next one I would say. He's very good, very talented, fast and good dribbling skills." Sancho also recalled how he advised Hudson-Odoi about his future: "I have told him the Bundesliga is a nice league. I just told him to do whatever is best for him and whatever makes him feel comfortable." As Hudson-Odoi nurses a hamstring strain, his return to Premier League action hangs in the balance. Meanwhile, Nottingham Forest may have bagged a spot in the Europa Conference League, but they're setting their sights sky-high with dreams of kicking on to nab a coveted Champions League place as crunch time approaches and the top teams duke it out.

Jadon Sancho has already given Man United green light to seal transfer for player he knows well
Jadon Sancho has already hailed Manchester United-linked forward Callum Hudson-Odoi. The Nottingham Forest winger is reportedly on United and head coach Ruben Amorim's transfer radar. According to Sky Sports' Dharmesh Sheth, Old Trafford recruitment figures are keeping tabs on the 24-year-old as he faces a decision over his future at the City Ground. Hudson-Odoi will be hoping to remain in the plans for Nuno Espirito Santo after Forest ended their three-decade wait for European qualification following their draw at home to Leicester City. The attacker's contract expires next summer and it has been said that talks are ongoing over penning fresh terms in Nottingham.

The Manchester Evening News reported on Wednesday that the club are targeting at least three priority signings with Matheus Cunha, Liam Delap and a new midfielder being eyed. Sancho is a player who is said to be close to Hudson-Odoi but the former Borussia Dortmund winger has had a difficult spell at Old Trafford. The 25-year-old currently plies his trade at United's Premier League rivals Chelsea on loan and has an obligation in his contract that will see him complete a permanent move to Stamford Bridge. He previously spoke glowingly about Hudson-Odoi, lavishing praise on his fellow forward's key attacking attributes and tipping him for future stardom. "Me and Callum are close friends," said Sancho in 2019. "We've played with each other at England "He's the next one I would say. He's very good, very talented, fast and good dribbling skills. "I have told him the Bundesliga is a nice league. I just told him to do whatever is best for him and whatever makes him feel comfortable." Hudson-Odoi's involvement in the remaining Premier League matches remains unclear after picking up a hamstring injury. Forest secured qualification for the Europa Conference League but they will be hoping to break into the top five and secure Champions League football with the teams above them playing against each other in the final two games of the season.
