Chelsea are in active talks with agent of 25 year old star. The player was at West London on loan this season. The Blues are now said to make a final decision about his future soon.
The star in question here is Jadon Sancho. He joined the Blues on loan from Man United last summer. The Red Devils signed Sancho as promising talent from Borussia Dortmund. But he failed to carry that form with him to England.
Later, Sancho was involved in argument with then United boss Erik Ten Hag. This saw him spend most of the time on bench in 2023/24 season. He was then send on loan to Dortmund where he once again shined bright. But, United had no intention to keep him.
As a result, United sent Sancho on loan at Chelsea last summer. The player had a good start to his Blues career. But, he once again failed to stay consistent. This has now raised doubts over the future of Sancho at West London.
Chelsea in active talks with Sancho’s agents
The Blues have an obligation to buy Sancho for £25 million. But, they also have an option to pay United £5 million as penalty fee and send Sancho back. But, the West London club are said to be willing to take a risk of signing him under one condition.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea are in talks with Sancho’s agents over his salary demands. They have no intention to match his current salary at United. This will prove as a crucial point in making a final decision about Sancho.
Chelsea do have other options available in market. But, Sancho will be the cheapest option. He is still young and can surely bounce back. But, the Blues can also opt to make him available in summer market quickly after making him a permanent Chelsea player.
