An unnamed Saudi Arabian club have reportedly made an official offer for Manchester United attacker Jadon Sancho, with the Englishman facing an uncertain future at Old Trafford.
Clubs in Saudi Pro League have until the end of Thursday to sign new players, and it is being alleged that a lucrative offer from one of the teams in the division has been made for Sancho.
According to journalist Rudy Galetti, the situation is 'evolving', with a Saudi outfit pushing to secure the attacker's signature before the transfer window closes.
The 23-year-old was a notable absentee from the Man United squad that was picked for Sunday's Premier League clash against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.
Red Devils head coach Erik ten Hag claimed that Sancho had not been selected for the contest in North London due to his disappointing performances in training.

Sancho later took to social media to claim that he had been made "a scapegoat" and insisted that he had 'conducted himself very well in training' in the build-up to the Premier League match.
Ten Hag is believed to feel 'let down' by the attacker's social media post considering the support that the club gave him towards the end of last year during some personal problems.
The manager is thought to be considering exiling Sancho from the main group at Man United as punishment for his conduct after the clash with Arsenal.
However, there is currently speculation surrounding his future, with clubs from Turkey and Saudi Arabia thought to be keeping a close eye on his situation in Manchester.

Bayern Munich are also said to be monitoring developments with a view to potentially moving for Sancho during the January transfer window.
Man United were believed to be willing to listen to sensible offers for the Englishman over the summer, with Chelsea thought to have been given the chance to sign him.
Sancho, who has unsurprisingly been left out of the latest England squad, has found it difficult to make his mark for the 20-time English champions since his high-profile move from Borussia Dortmund in July 2021.
The forward has only managed 12 goals and six assists in 82 appearances for Man United in all competitions, but he has another three years left to run on his contract, with the option of a further 12 months.
Sancho featured off the bench in his team's opening three matches of the new Premier League season before being left out of the squad against Arsenal.
