Manchester United attacker Jadon Sancho is reportedly wanted by West Ham United this summer.
The 25-year-old has returned to Old Trafford from his loan spell at Chelsea's Stamford Bridge for the whole of the 2024-25 campaign.
Sancho has supposedly decided against playing for Man United again, insisting that his future lies away from the Theatre of Dreams.
During a temporary spell in West London last season, the former England international netted three goals and provided four assists across 31 Premier League appearances.
Sancho and Chelsea enjoyed more success on the continent, lifting the Conference League trophy after beating Real Betis in the final.

Man United wantaway Sancho set for West Ham move?
According to ESPN, Sancho could remain in the Premier League should he depart from the Theatre of Dreams during the summer transfer window.
The report claims that strugglers West Ham are keen on securing the signature of the former Borussia Dortmund great ahead of the new season.
However, a move for Sancho to the London Stadium would require the Hammers to disrupt their current wage structure, something they might be unwilling to do.
On the books of elite clubs around Europe since breaking into the senior world, the 25-year-old will demand a hefty salary at any future employer.
Chelsea were obliged to purchase Sancho following his loan spell last season, however the Blues have since paid compensation to sidestep the arrangement.

West Ham's attacking needs
Ending up 14th in the Premier League standings at the conclusion of the 2024-25 season, it is fair to say that West Ham endured a sobering term.
Regular competitors at the top end of the division in recent times, the Hammers need to bolster in the transfer market as they aim to return to former heights.
Head coach Graham Potter has been criticised for a rather pragmatic approach at stages, although the arrival of Sancho could flip the script at the London Stadium.
