Manchester United attacker Jadon Sancho is expected to leave the club permanently at the end of the season.
Jadon Sancho is currently on loan at Aston Villa, but he has barely made any impact at the West Midlands club. As per a report by Spanish outlet Fichajes, the Englishman is now closing in on a move to his former club, Borussia Dortmund.
The move to the Premier League has not worked out for Sancho, and he failed to make his mark at Manchester United, Chelsea and Aston Villa. It would be ideal for him to return to his comfort zone in the summer.
The versatile English playmaker is still very much at the peak of his career, and he will look to return to his best. Regular football in Germany could help him regain his form and confidence.
Sancho was a top-quality player during his time at Borussia Dortmund, and Manchester United paid top dollar to secure his signature. They expected him to develop into a world-class player for the club. However, the move has not gone according to plan, and Manchester United are ready to cut ties with him.
The Premier League giants will not be able to recoup anything from his departure, let alone the money they paid for him, and they will have to accept a significant loss on his departure. However, it does not make any sense for him to stay in England when he has not been able to perform at the highest level.
Can Sancho bounce back?
It will be interesting to see if he can get the best out of him once again. There is no doubt that the 25-year-old Manchester United troublemaker is a technically gifted player, and he has shown his quality in Germany before.
Borussia Dortmund need to add more quality and depth on the flanks, and the 25-year-old could be useful for them if he manages to regain his form and sharpness. The Englishman knows the club well, and he should be able to settle quickly and make an immediate impact. It remains to be seen how the situation develops.
The player will be a free agent in the summer, and signing him for nothing makes it a gamble worth taking. Borussia Dortmund will feel there is a huge potential upside to the transfer if he can recapture his peak form.
