Report: Man United informed of Chelsea’s decision about Jadon Sancho

Jadon Sancho is currently on loan from Manchester United to Chelsea.

The English winger joined the Blues in a season long loan last year and Enzo Maresca’s team have the option to sign the player in a permanent move after this season.

However, according to The Mirror, they are not expected to make his move to Stamford Bridge permanent.

Chelsea’s decision not to sign Jadon Sancho permanently from Manchester United has introduced fresh uncertainty about the winger’s future.

As per a report by The Mirror, the Blues are prepared to pay a £5 million penalty to withdraw from a £25 million obligation to buy at the end of the season.

Sancho, who joined Chelsea on loan after a challenging spell at Old Trafford, failed to make a lasting impact during his time at Stamford Bridge.

His inconsistency, coupled with Chelsea’s desire to focus on other attacking options, led to the decision not to pursue a permanent deal. This move has reignited speculation around Sancho’s next destination, with his career now at a crossroads.

Man United, eager to offload the 25-year-old, are open to offers as they look to balance their squad and invest in other key areas.

This has paved the way for a potential return to the Bundesliga, where Sancho previously flourished at Borussia Dortmund. Reports suggest that both Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen are monitoring the situation closely.

A return to Dortmund would be a natural fit for Sancho, given his successful stint there between 2017 and 2021. However, Sancho would be required to accept a significant pay cut from his current £250,000-a-week salary, which may pose a challenge for negotiations.

Leverkusen, last season’s Bundesliga champions, have also expressed interest, particularly with speculation surrounding the future of their star midfielder Florian Wirtz.

If Wirtz departs, Leverkusen could view Sancho as an ideal replacement to strengthen their attacking options.
