Transfer Plans in Motion Regardless of Managerial Changes
Manchester United are preparing to offload Jadon Sancho in the upcoming transfer window, with a permanent move away from Old Trafford on the cards for the winger. This decision stands firm even amidst uncertainty over Erik ten Hag’s position as the club’s manager.
Ten Hag’s Precarious Position and Sancho’s United Exit
Despite the potential for managerial upheaval at Manchester United, with new part-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe considering a replacement for Ten Hag after a lackluster season, Sancho’s future seems to be elsewhere. The 23-year-old, currently on loan at Borussia Dortmund, had a well-documented disagreement with Ten Hag prior to his January loan move.
Financial Realities Force United’s Hand
A high-ranking source from Manchester United has indicated that the club will need to offload players to balance the books and fund incoming transfers. Sancho, a high earner at the club, is among those who will be put on the market. United reportedly acknowledges that they are unlikely to recover the £73 million fee paid for him in 2021.
Dortmund’s Loan Deal and Sancho’s Salary Situation
While Sancho is back with Dortmund, the German club is covering just 40% of his hefty £250,000-a-week salary. His move to Manchester United in 2021 has not yielded the expected returns, with Sancho struggling to leave a lasting mark during his tenure at the club.
No Buy Option for Dortmund as United Awaits Offers
Dortmund’s agreement to take Sancho on loan did not come with an option to purchase the player outright. Consequently, United is open to entertaining offers from other interested parties. Sancho’s current contract with United extends until 2026, leaving plenty of time for a potential suitor to secure his services.
Sancho’s United Stats and Current Form
During his stint at Manchester United, Sancho made 82 appearances, scoring 12 goals and providing six assists. Since rejoining Dortmund, he has yet to find the back of the net but has contributed two assists in eight matches, featuring in the majority of Dortmund’s recent league and Champions League games.
Guardiola’s Take on United’s Talent
In related news, Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has reportedly singled out one Manchester United star as being worthy of a spot in his squad, though details on the player’s identity remain undisclosed.
