news on man united: Jadon Sancho

Manchester United are ready to extend Jadon Sancho’s contract to prevent him from leaving for free.

One of the most intriguing story of this summer was Jadon Sancho. Last year, he had a public quarrel with Erik ten Hag, and after that, his loan spell at Chelsea did not turn into a permanent deal.

This time, the situation became more difficult after the arrival of Ruben Amorim. Sancho did not get a single minute in the first team and was completely out of the team.

Manchester United were clear from the beginning that they needed to get rid of Sancho, but the task was not so easy.

Teams like Borussia Dortmund, Juventus and Roma were interested, but no one dared to accept his salary and transfer fee, and this proved to be the biggest obstacle.

Eventually, on the last day of the transfer window, Aston Villa came forward and took him on a one-year loan, where the club is paying a large part of his salary. This was a relief move for United, even if it was not a permanent transfer.

According to a report by Football Insider, Manchester United are now planning to activate the extension clause in Sancho’s contract. This step is being taken so that the 25-year-old winger does not leave on a free transfer next year.

The club had spent a huge amount on him, and now losing him without any return would be unacceptable. The report from Pete O’Rourke said that United want to protect themselves by adopting this option.
