The England international winger found himself out of favor at Old Trafford last season following a dispute with Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag. Afterward, he returned to Borussia Dortmund on loan, where he featured in the 2024 Champions League final but was excluded from England’s European Championship squad.

Upon his return to Manchester, Sancho was reportedly given a chance for a fresh start. However, he missed United’s Premier League opener against Fulham due to an ear infection, fueling speculation about his future.

According to The Athletic, Sancho may still be on the move before the transfer window closes. Paris Saint-Germain has shown interest, but Chelsea, who have already signed Pedro Neto this summer and secured a deal for former loanee Joao Felix, could also pursue Sancho.

Manchester United believes that Saudi Arabian clubs might also be potential buyers, with a £40 million ($52m) price tag set for Sancho. Since joining the Red Devils in 2021, he has scored just 12 goals in 83 appearances across all competitions.
