Sancho could still end up back at Old Trafford
When Jadon Sancho made the summer switch to Chelsea, the deal was confirmed to be a season-long loan with the obligation to buy for £25million.
Reports claim that the Blues must pay the obligatory fee if they finish above 14th in the Prem, and that looks sure to happen.
But there is still a chance that the permanent move won’t happen at the end of the season.

However, to do that, they would have to pay a significant amount of money to United to break the terms of the initial agreement.

Learning from the best
Bruno Fernandes has revealed he discusses penalty taking with Cristiano Ronaldo.
Fernandes said: "When we go to the national team, I'm always having shots with Cristiano to understand the way he does it. We speak a lot.
"He sometimes asks me what I think about the goalkeeper and everything.
"Even Cristiano, if you see him now is different now from the past.
"If I see the penalty from Cristiano against Chelsea in the final of the Champions League [in 2008] and the ones that he takes after that, he is changing his way of kicking and now he’s changing again.
"So you are always having to adapt yourself to the game because things change quickly. People get to know you better and better."
