Borussia Dortmund boss confirms Jadon Sancho transfer plan amid Manchester United decision

Borussia Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl has revealed that talks will take place with Manchester United over the possibility of re-signing Jadon Sancho after the summer.

Sancho joined the Bundesliga giants on loan in January after falling out of favor under Erik ten Hag. The striker managed just three appearances for United before being dropped from the squad.

In January, he returned to Dortmund after leaving them in 2021 and rediscovered his early career form. Despite scoring just three goals in 17 games, the England international has been instrumental in Dortmund’s run to the Champions League semi-finals.

“They are under contract with their clubs, so it means that at some point we will get in touch and see if it is possible or not. I know the players are welcome in Dortmund, they feel at home, especially Jadon, he. us he knows the club quite well.

“I think it was a pretty good decision to take them over the winter, but again, that’s something for the future.”
