Borussia Dortmund finds itself in a Bundesliga crisis, currently sitting fifth and 15 points behind leaders Bayer Leverkusen. The club is banking on the return of Jadon Sancho to salvage the season. During his previous tenure from 2017 to 2021, Sancho showcased qualities Dortmund currently lacks – pace, goal threat, courage, and decisive ball play.
Despite being a fan favorite, the club, adhering to its business model of developing and selling young players, reluctantly sold him to Manchester United for £73 million. Dortmund’s management had reservations about Sancho’s late-night gaming sessions, occasional tardiness, and swift post-match private jet trips to his home country. Past attempts at bringing players back, such as Mario Gotze and Shinji Kagawa, were generally unsuccessful.
However, the exception of Mats Hummels has Dortmund optimistic about Sancho’s potential impact. The club is eagerly anticipating Sancho’s return during the winter break in Marbella, hoping for a successful surprise reunion.
Here is the highlight video of Sancho’s skills and goals while he was playing for Dortmund.
