Chelsea an option for Sancho, loan possible (reliability: 5 stars)

Chelsea have emerged as a possible destination for Jadon Sancho, the Athletic reports.

The forward is facing an uncertain situation at Man United after a conflict with manager Erik ten Hag. He's been frozen out of the squad and the Red Devils are exploring ways to offload him.

The Englishman has options in Saudi Arabia but Juventus and Chelsea have been sounded out as well. His previous club Borussia Dortmund said they weren't interested as his 'over £200,000-per-week' salary is too much for them. Additionally, the Bundesliga side were not happy with his poor timekeeping.

Man United are asking for £65m in exchange for the 23-year-old. However, a loan move may be possible.

Sancho is one of the most gifted players England has produced in recent years. He shone at Dortmund between 2017 and 2021, scoring 50 goals in 137 appearances. However, he's failed to replicate that form at Man United, with only 12 goals in 82 matches so far.
