The London club “Chelsea,” heading to the UEFA Champions League, has begun strengthening its squad for the upcoming season. The next main transfer target for the “Blues” is Jadon Sancho, who belongs to “Manchester United” but played on loan last season.
It has been reported that “Chelsea” intends to fully purchase the 25-year-old English midfielder. Currently, the club's management is negotiating personal contract terms with the player.
Salary issue - the main obstacle
According to renowned transfer insider Fabrizio Romano, the main issue during the negotiations is the disagreement over the salary. The wage offered by “Chelsea” does not meet Sancho's demands. If the parties cannot reach an agreement in the coming days, the player may return to bolster the ranks of “Manchester United.”
Sancho - a bright start, a contrasting direction
Jadon Sancho took his first steps in football at the “Manchester City” academy. Later, he made a big impact at Germany's “Borussia Dortmund” and was recognized as one of Europe's most talented players.
In 2021, “Manchester United” purchased him for 85 million euros. However, despite high expectations, Sancho could not fully showcase himself at “Old Trafford.” His performance declined, disagreements arose with the club's coaching staff, and as a result, he spent the last two seasons on loan at other teams.
A full transfer to “Chelsea” could be an opportunity for Jadon Sancho to revive his career and open a new chapter. However, for this to happen, both the player and the club need to find balance in their terms. If the agreement does not materialize, the star player will have to return to the complicated environment at “United.” For now, all eyes are on the negotiations between London and Manchester.
