Chelsea have been deliberating over whether to fulfill their obligation to sign Jadon Sancho this summer, and it seems they have finally made their decision regarding the Manchester United loanee.
Sancho joined Chelsea on a season-long loan last summer, with a clause that obligates the Blues to complete his permanent transfer in 2025. ..Continue Reading
As part of the agreement, a “break” clause was included, allowing Chelsea to return Sancho to United with compensation if they chose not to proceed.
However, reports suggest that Chelsea does not plan to exercise this clause, nor do they intend to keep Sancho in their squad, as his performances this season have fallen short of expectations.
According to Football Insider, Chelsea is prepared to honor their commitment to sign Sancho permanently, but their intention is to sell him immediately afterward, likely aiming to turn a profit.
They believe the winger will attract significant interest from other clubs, a notion supported by links to Bayer Leverkusen and Sancho’s former team, Borussia Dortmund, who are reportedly interested in a summer transfer.
It’s clear that Sancho’s time at Chelsea has not been fruitful, but at 25 years old, he still has ample opportunity to revive his career.
A move back to Germany, where he previously excelled, might offer the ideal chance for him to regain his form. This option appears highly likely to materialize in the summer.
However, his struggles in the Premier League, across multiple clubs, suggest his success may lie elsewhere.
