Sancho joined Man United from Borussia Dortmund in 2021 for £73 million but has failed to impress.

He spent last term on loan with Chelsea, notching five goals and ten assists in 41 appearances to help the Blues win the Europa Conference League. They opted against signing him permanently.

The 30-year-old Swede has been without a club since leaving the Theatre of Dreams after his contract expired, but he is set to return to the Premier League to link up with the Villans.
