The Jadon Sancho transfer saga could come to an end on Saturday. After a planned flight was canceled on Friday, there will be a new attempt on Saturday to secure the attacker’s move from Manchester United to Borussia Dortmund in the training camp in Spain. BVB has already prepared everything for the medical check.
While all the details between Borussia Dortmund and Jadon Sancho have long been clarified, according to consistent media reports, there has recently been confusion about how quickly the return of the prodigal son can be finalized. A short-term arrival at BVB’s training camp in Marbella recently fell through and Sancho was not allowed to board the plane on Friday morning. But postponed is not canceled.
As the “Ruhr Nachrichten” reports, a new flight date has been set for Sancho. Accordingly, the Englishman will take off from Manchester on Saturday morning at 10:30 a.m. German time and land in Spain at around 1 p.m.
A BVB entourage will be waiting for him there and will take him to a local private clinic so that he can complete the obligatory medical check in Marbella. According to the newspaper, everything is prepared for this. The examinations can be carried out by Dortmund’s team doctor Dr. Markus Braun and his team are carried out.
If Sancho passes the check, he will (at least) wear the Borussia jersey until the summer, which he already put on with great success between 2017 and 2021 (38 goals and 51 assists in 104 games).
BVB: Purchase option for Sancho?
The most important details have long been negotiated between Manchester United and those responsible for BVB: the loan fee and the division of the salary. The question remains open as to whether there will be a purchase option, according to the “Ruhr Nachrichten”.
According to the English “Sun”, it is “probable” that the German runner-up will secure one. According to information from “Football Insider”, the clause amounts to around 25 million euros.
However, “Bild” recently reported that such an option was not integrated into the deal. Accordingly, this detail was “particularly important” to the Red Devils. You play poker with the market value and hope that Sancho could be worth a much higher fee next summer than he is currently.
