According to ESPN, Villa is very interested in Manchester United winger Sancho. The Red Devils hope that Sancho will leave before the transfer window is closed. Sancho may join Villa on loan, which has nothing to do with Martinez's possible transfer to Manchester United.
Sancho has one more year left in his contract with Manchester United, and he will become a free agent next summer. In addition, sources also told ESPN that Villa will sign free agent Lindelof. After eight years at Manchester United, Lindelof left the team after his contract expired this summer.
