Borussia Dortmund are looking to secure Jadon Sancho deal so he can join them on their training camp in Marbella next week. Negotiations continue over a six month loan deal from Manchester United. Dortmund are aware that he has not been part of matches for the past few months and it is a risk, but Sancho has been fit, injury free and ready to play and Dortmund believe he can influence the team immediately.
Most supporters support the transfer as he was popular during his first spell at the club. It is thought initial talks have taken place over a loan deal until the end of the season, which would see Sancho return to the Bundesliga club.
Man Utd signed Sancho from Dortmund in the summer of 2021 in a deal worth £73m. The England international’s contract at Old Trafford is up in 2026, with United holding the option to extend for a further year. Sancho has not played for United since a 3-2 win over Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford on August 26, after a public falling out with boss Erik ten Hag following his criticisms of the forward’s performances in training. The 23 year old has been training away from the first team because he took to social media to hit out at Ten Hag’s allegations.
United have been open to offers for the winger with no resolution to the standoff in sight, and now he could be set for a return to Dortmund, however, INEOS owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who has acquired 25% of Manchester United and taken control of football operations, has to be consulted on all transfer decisions this month.
