Jadon Sancho is set to head to Chelsea.
Fabrizio Romano, a reporter who is fluent in the European transfer market, said on the 31st (Korean time), “It’s worse than the news. Sancho is moving to Chelsea. They have agreed on a loan agreement that includes a clause on the obligation to fully recruit between clubs. Sancho has already said he wants to move to Chelsea, and a deal has now been agreed between all parties. Manchester United has also accepted the offer and the contract will be signed soon,” he reported.
Sancho, who showed tremendous performance for Dortmund, joined Manchester United in the 2021-22 season. He came to Manchester United with a high transfer fee of 85 million euros (125.7 billion won), but he did not perform as well as expected. Sancho’s strength of dribbling and connection with teammates was not shown properly. Sancho was sluggish in his debut season with three goals and three assists.
As Erik ten Hag took the helm in his second year, there was a reversal, but nothing changed. Using Sancho as a zero-top, left and right wingers, Ten Hag made efforts to find a suitable usage. Sancho, however, did not have good performance in comparison to the transfer fee, with six league goals. 안전놀이터
During the last season, there was even a situation of protest. As Coach Ten Hag removed Sancho from the list in the early days of the season, Sancho left a comment on his SNS against the coach’s decision. As a result, Sancho was expelled from the first team and left for his club Dortmund in the winter transfer window.
He showed good performance at Dortmund. With Sancho’s good performance, Dortmund were able to win the runner-up prize at the UEFA Champions League.
However, he returned to Manchester United because he was a loan player to the end, and it seemed that he would play for Manchester United again when news broke that he had reconciled with Coach Ten Hach. Coach Ten Hach covered Sancho, saying, “Everyone makes mistakes,” and actively used Sancho in pre-season friendly matches.
Things changed when the season opened. Sancho did not play in both Premier League matches, and the transfer took off. Juventus and Chelsea were interested, but the final winner was Chelsea. Juventus withdrew from the recruitment match, and Chelsea agreed to a loan deal. According to European transfer market expert David Onstein, Sancho will be loaned to him on the condition that he is fully recruited next summer.
