One of Jadon Sancho’s potential dream moves following his departure from Manchester United is now uncertain.
- Arsenal make final decision on signing Viktor Gyokeres after agent meeting
- Man Utd ‘banned’ from signing transfer target Amorim wants due to strict UEFA rule
- Cristiano Ronaldo admitted Lionel Messi was better than him at just one thing
Sancho is back at Manchester United after Chelsea decided against making his loan move permanent, instead paying a penalty fee to send him back to Old Trafford.
United manager Ruben Amorim has no intention of reintegrating the winger into the first-team setup.
With just one year remaining on his contract and a substantial weekly wage, United are eager to find a permanent solution for his future.

Following his exclusion from the squad under Erik ten Hag, Sancho briefly revived his form during a loan spell at Dortmund, helping them reach the Champions League final.
However, despite his preference for a return to Germany, Dortmund have shifted their focus to other transfer priorities.
Meanwhile, Bayer Leverkusen have emerged as a potential destination, as they search for a replacement for Florian Wirtz, who is on the verge of completing a high-profile move to Liverpool.
‘Of course, contact with Jadon is always there, in some way, because we have a very long history,’ Dortmund’s sporting director Sebastian Kehl said.
‘But it’s not an issue for us right now. We have other priorities at the moment, and that’s why the Sancho issue was probably played up more in the media than discussed internally.’
Ten Hag’s appointment as Xabi Alonso’s successor could complicate any potential plans for Jadon Sancho, given their past history.
If Manchester United manage to offload Sancho this summer, they will likely take a significant financial loss on the substantial fee they paid for him five years ago.
A loan move appears to be a more realistic possibility, with Aston Villa, Newcastle United, and Tottenham among the clubs keeping an eye on his situation.
Meanwhile, United are also looking to part ways with Marcus Rashford and Antony.
Rashford remains hopeful of securing a move to Barcelona, while Real Betis—where Antony impressed during his loan spell—may struggle to meet United’s valuation for a permanent transfer.
