MANCHESTER UNITED are preparing to sell Jadon Sancho in the January transfer window, according to reports.
The English forward, 23, has been axed from the Red Devils' first-team squad for the past six weeks following a falling out with manager Erik ten Hag.
Meanwhile, Sir Jim Ratcliffe's proposed deal to buy a 25 per cent stake in Manchester United is unlikely to be ratified at Thursday's board meeting, according to reports.
The British billionaire is expected to pay £1.4bn for a quarter stake in the club, which would reportedly give his company, INEOS, control over footballing operations at Old Trafford.

No way back for Sergio
Sergio Reguilon appears to have cut ties with parent club Spurs.
That's by claiming every footballer wants to play for Man United.
Reguilon joined the Red Devils on loan and has impressed in several appearances.
He said: "This question is too easy. Tell me one player that doesn't want to play for Manchester United. It was an easy decision for me."

Ratcliffe waits for takeover approval
Man Utd fans may have to wait until next month at LEAST before finding out if Sir Jim Ratcliffe will be taking a stake in the club.
The 70-year-old's bid was initially expected to be given the green light in a Red Devils board meeting this week.
But while a scheduled board meeting did take place as planned on Thursday, and the potential share sale is almost certain to be discussed, there will be no decision from the Glazers and other directors.
Although a late change of heart is possible, it is understood that the final details on any agreement are still being thrashed out by lawyers and are unlikely to be completed in time.

Martial law for striker
Anthony Martial has been warned to shape up or ship out.
Reports claim the Frenchman has been told he must show signs of improvement to earn a new Man Utd contract.
Martial's current deal expires at the end of the season and the Red Devils are prepared to lose him on a free.
But if he gets back to goalscoring ways after some injury-blighted seasons, Martial could yet end up penning a United extension.

Three reasons Man Utd are struggling
Man Utd sit 10th in the Premier League after a disappointing start to the season.
There was a real sense of optimism around the club as the season began, with United back in the Champions League and the squad receiving significant investment.

Fans face wait for takeover news
Man Utd fans may have to wait until next month at LEAST before finding out if Sir Jim Ratcliffe will be taking a stake in the club.
The 70-year-old's bid was initially expected to be given the green light in a Red Devils board meeting this week.
It had been thought that the £1.4bn offer for 25 per cent of United from Britain’s richest man and his Ineos petrochemicals giant could be approved as early as today.
But while a scheduled board meeting WILL take place as planned and the potential share sale is almost certain to be discussed, there will be no decision from the Glazers and other directors.
Although a late change of heart is possible, it is understood that the final details on any agreement are still being thrashed out by lawyers and are unlikely to be completed in time.
Ratcliffe is understood to be wanting “sporting control” of the club despite only taking a minority stake.

In the red corner
Eddie Hearn has revealed Wayne Rooney still messages him about a fight – with an Old Trafford showdown against Jake Paul teased.
Rooney – an avid boxing fan who competed as an amateur when he was younger – fancies his chances against a celebrity rival.
And Hearn told on The Overlap how the Manchester United legend could end up in the ring with YouTuber-turned boxer Paul.
He said: "He won't mind me saying but after every big fight, especially with a YouTuber, sometimes Rooney will fire me a message.
"Wayne Rooney had a very limited amateur pedigree but could still fight.
"Wayne Rooney training, and I said to him, 'Imagine the shape you could get in as well. You'll get right back into shape.'
"(Rooney) against Jake Paul at Old Trafford."

United dealt ANOTHER injury blow
Sofyan Amrabat has become the latest Manchester United star to suffer an injury.
The Moroccan midfielder was forced to withdraw from international duty this week.
Amrabat was a notable absentee from the Morocco side that beat Liberia 3-0.
He also missed their friendly with the Ivory Coast on Saturday.
According to Moroccan news outlet Al Ayam, the on-loan United midfielder was not involved due to an unspecified injury, making him a serious doubt for United's away game against Sheffield United this weekend.

Sheffield Utd vs Man Utd ones to watch
Summer signing Gustavo Hamer has been a shining light for Sheffield United this season.
The Brazilian, recruited from Coventry in August, has scored in matches against Nottingham Forest and Tottenham.
Man Utd, meanwhile, found an unlikely hero in Scott McTominay.
The Scotland star scored an amazing late double against Brentford and will surely be rewarded with a start this time around.
McTominay will also be buoyed by Scotland's qualification for Euro 2024 and should be oozing with confidence.

Sheffield Utd vs Man Utd team news
Paul Heckingbottom will continue to deal with a lengthy list of absentees and Chris Basham's horrific ankle injury did not help the Sheffield United boss' woes.
Ben Osborn (groin), John Egan (ankle), Tom Davies (muscle), Daniel Jebbison (muscle), Rhys Norrington-Davies (hamstring), Max Lowe (ankle), William Osula (knock) and George Baldock are all doubts for this huge encounter.
Elsewhere, Ten Hag has a few injury issues of his own as this match has come too soon for Lisandro Martinez (foot), Aaron Wan-Bissaka (hamstring), Amad Diallo (knee), Kobbie Mainoo (ankle), Tyrell Malacia (muscle) and Luke Shaw (muscle).
However, the United boss will be delighted to welcome the potential returns of Raphael Varane and Sergio Reguilon.
But there is still no confirmation on when Jadon Sancho will play for the Red Devils again.

Hojlund branded a 'disappointment' by San Marino star
Man Utd star Rasmus Hojlund was slammed by a San Marino veteran after claiming he was targeted during their clash.
Roberto Di Maio hit back after the striker suggested San Marino players tried to "crush" him during Denmark's 2-1 win on Tuesday.
He wrote on social media: "Today I read that Mr 80 million is complaining because yesterday he received less than great treatment from the defenders of San Marino.
"Well dear, probably in football like today where physical contact has disappeared you can allow yourself to make fun of us little opponents with ugly and repeated gestures or to simulate at every opportunity hoping for the VAR for a penalty.
"I would have liked to see you 15 years ago when only real men played football! You were a disappointment Hojlund, good luck."

Ratcliffe deal being delayed
Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s bid for a 25 per cent share in United has a number of potential sticking points – in terms of board representation and demarcation lines.
This is between the Ineos areas of authority and those still under the remit of the current hierarchy.
They will need further detailed discussions and negotiation before a formal proposition is put to the board.
Changes to board members must then be confirmed via the New York Stock Exchange, where the club is listed.
Since the start of last month, United’s “market capitalisation” – the value of the club’s shares – has fallen by around £750m.
Ratcliffe is hoping to have attained control ahead of the January transfer window.
