The 23-year-old aims to rejuvenate his career in Germany, returning to familiar territory after being sidelined from Manchester United’s first team due to a public disagreement with manager Erik ten Hag. Sancho found himself training separately from the main squad at Carrington since August, a consequence of his social media criticism of Ten Hag, with the manager adamant about reintegration only upon receiving a formal apology.
His former club has extended a lifeline, and Sancho is set to travel to Spain, where his new team, the Black and Yellows, are currently conducting a winter training camp. There, he’ll undergo a medical examination and finalize his loan contract, as reported by Fabrizio Romano.
Initially scheduled to arrive in Marbella earlier, Sancho’s flight faced unexpected delays while both teams hashed out the finer points of the agreement. Notably, the loan deal lacks a buy option, indicating Sancho’s return to Manchester in the summer.
Despite the financial arrangement requiring Manchester United to cover a portion of Sancho’s nearly £300,000-a-week salary to facilitate the loan, the club is content to move him out, no longer considering him a pivotal player under Ten Hag’s leadership.
Keen on a fresh start, Sancho looks to swiftly regain momentum at his former stomping ground, Signal Iduna Park, where he left a mark with an impressive record of 114 goal contributions in 137 appearances for Dortmund. His aim is to replicate that remarkable form in this second stint.
