Jadon Sancho Set to Leave Manchester United This Summer
Reports say Manchester United plan to sell Jadon Sancho in the summer transfer window. This means Sancho will leave the club and join a new team. It does not matter if Erik ten Hag stays or leaves as the manager.
Jadon Sancho is set to Leave Manchester
In January, Sancho went on loan to his former club Borussia Dortmund. This happened after he had an argument with Ten Hag, who is Manchester United’s manager. Their relationship became poor.
Dortmund Want Sancho but Cannot Pay High Wages
While on loan at Dortmund, Sancho has played very well for them in the Champions League. Dortmund would like to keep Sancho permanently. But they cannot afford to pay him the same high wages Manchester United pay. Dortmund also cannot afford to pay a big fee to buy Sancho permanently from United.
Another Loan or Permanent Sale?
One option is for Sancho to go on loan to Dortmund again next season (2024-25). But Manchester United would prefer to sell Sancho permanently to another club, rather than loan him out again.
