Tottenham Hotspur are considering a summer move for Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho
Manchester United are in trouble both on and off the pitch at the moment. The embarrassing defeat against Grimsby Town in the Carabao Cup has only added to the tension. The League Two side took the lead in the first half with goals from Charles Vernam and Tyrell Warren, and Bryan Mbeumo and Harry Maguire fought back in the second. The match went to penalties, and Grimsby goalkeeper Christy Pym, a United fan, became the hero. The defeat has piled the pressure on Ruben Amorim. Manchester United have also had a lacklustre start in the league, and the outside news for the club are no less worrying.
Jadon Sancho’s confusion and potential changes
United spent £200m in the summer to strengthen their attack, signing the likes of Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo and Benjamin Sesko. However, among the players who are not able to fit into the team’s plans, Jadon Sancho has become the biggest name. When Sancho was brought from Borussia Dortmund, everyone expected him to become one of the most dazzling wingers in the Premier League. United fans thought that his dribbling skills and pace would give a new look to the team’s attack, but in reality, his performance was scattered, sometimes due to fitness and sometimes due to attitude. The 25-year-old is now unable to find a place in the team.
Meanwhile, his situation is being monitored by Tottenham. Spurs are looking for a big name after the departure of Son Heung-Min, and Sancho is being considered for that vacant place. Interestingly, Tottenham tried to bring Manchester City’s Savinho, but things did not work out. In such a situation, United can also get relief if a buyer is found for Sancho, because both his salary and presence in the dressing room are now starting to seem like a burden.

How bright will Sancho’s future be at Spurs
Tottenham Hotspur are considering a summer move for Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho.
Jadon Sancho is in Tottenham’s radar
The question now is whether Sancho’s move to Spurs will be beneficial for both parties. His negotiations with Roma got stuck due to salary and the loyalty bonus demanded from United, and now only a few days are left. Spurs need a player who can make an immediate impact, while Sancho also needs a fresh start.
However, the problem is his mentality and inability to perform consistently well. If he changes himself, the 25-year-old can secure a place at Spurs; otherwise, the same old disappointment will follow. We won’t mind whichever club he goes to right now, as we just want to offload Sancho anyhow. However, the main problem lies with his demands, and everything depends on Sancho’s will. United will hope that an unthinkable happens in the next three to four days.
