The Jadon Sancho transfer saga has taken another twist, with a surprise new club entering the race for the unsettled Manchester United winger.
Sancho, who has been frozen out of Erik ten Hag's first-team plans following a public falling-out, could finally secure his Old Trafford exit as interest grows across Europe.
Who Wants the England International?
While Borussia Dortmund have been strongly linked with a reunion, sources now suggest another Champions League-calibre side have joined the pursuit. The identity of this mystery suitor remains undisclosed, but their involvement could spark a bidding war for the 23-year-old.
Sancho's Manchester United Nightmare
Since his £73m move from Dortmund in 2021, Sancho has struggled to consistently deliver at United. The current season has seen relations with manager Ten Hag deteriorate completely, with the player effectively banished from first-team training.
"It's clear Jadon needs a fresh start," an insider revealed. "Several top clubs recognise his quality and believe they can help him rediscover his best form."
January Exit Likely
With the winter transfer window approaching, United are reportedly willing to sanction either a loan or permanent deal. However, they'll need to balance financial considerations with the need to remove a disruptive influence from the dressing room.
Sancho's situation mirrors that of several other Premier League stars who could be on the move in January as clubs look to offload unwanted high-earners.
