Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho has expressed his desire to make a permanent move to Borussia Dortmund this summer, after joining the club on a six-month loan deal in January. Sancho’s performances for Dortmund have been impressive, and he has made it clear that he feels more at home in Germany than he did at Old Trafford, according to Metro.
Sancho’s loan move to Dortmund was seen as a fresh start for the winger, who had fallen out of favor with Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag. Despite having three years left on his contract with United, Sancho is keen to make a permanent switch to Dortmund, where he has rediscovered his form and happiness.
Dortmund Sporting Director Sebastian Kehl has confirmed that Sancho is happy at the club and that they will attempt to sign him permanently this summer. “We will see (if we can keep him),” said Kehl. “He is on loan, but we need to make decisions and of course, he is under contract with his club. It means at a specific point, we will get in touch to see if it’s possible.”
Sancho’s desire to leave Manchester United is a significant blow to the club, who signed him for £72m in 2021. However, it is clear that Sancho has found a new lease of life at Dortmund, and the German club is keen to make his move permanent.
United fans will be disappointed to see Sancho go, but the winger’s desire to leave is understandable. Sancho has struggled to make an impact at Old Trafford, and his move to Dortmund has been a resounding success. With his performances for Dortmund, Sancho has reminded everyone of his quality as a player, and it is clear that he is happy and comfortable in Germany.
