United are prepared to give Sancho the No 7 shirt.
It’s currently vacant at Old Trafford and, even if Alexis Sanchez return from his loan spell at Inter Milan, he isn’t expected to take it back.
The No 7 shirt is a big deal at United, having been worn by club legends Cristiano Ronaldo, David Beckham, George Best and Eric Cantona over the years.
In recent years, players have struggled with the jersey on their back.
But United are confident Sancho can succeed where the likes of Sanchez, Angel Di Maria and Memphis Depay have failed in the past.
