After the rumors had been bubbling away for weeks, from the middle of this week onwards there were suddenly a lot of signs that Jadon Sancho’s move from Manchester United to Borussia Dortmund could happen very quickly. But the road to a comeback for the winger in the BVB jersey is probably not that easy.
According to consistent media reports, Jadon Sancho, who moved from BVB to Manchester United for 85 million in 2021, is about to return to Dortmund on loan. Initially it was said that the Englishman would start at Borussia’s training camp in Marbella on Friday – that didn’t happen and an agreement appears to be far from being reached on Saturday either.
According to “Sky”, BVB sports director Sebastian Kehl is still waiting for the “final breakthrough” in the talks with Manchester United. Although it is generally agreed that the loan has a total volume of around 3.5 million euros and does not include a purchase option, things that are less easily tangible are proving to be a hurdle.
“There are a lot of things going on in the background that don’t necessarily revolve around hard facts and figures, but also about how you can get out of this thing while saving face,” reveals “Sky” reporter Patrick Berger.
Sancho on BVB: That’s what Terzic says
The reason: A relatively cheap departure for Sancho is like admitting that United once made an expensive mistake by buying the former England international.
In addition, United are in no hurry, as Sancho has been suspended since August following disagreements with his coach Erik ten Hag. BVB, on the other hand, would like to have the offensive player in their ranks quickly.
Information from the “Ruhr Nachrichten” supports the hanging game: As on Friday, a planned flight by the former BVB professional with a private plane from Manchester to Marbella was canceled on Saturday.
On Saturday, BVB coach Edin Terzic was also confronted with the personnel on the sidelines of the test against AZ Alkmaar (2:2), but the coach, as expected, evaded: “I’m following it, but if there’s something to report, we’ll do it. “
