The two English wingers remain under contract with Manchester United but are spending the 2024-25 season away from Old Trafford. Jadon Sancho, having been sidelined by Erik ten Hag, secured a loan move back to Borussia Dortmund before eventually joining Chelsea last summer.
Meanwhile, Marcus Rashford has faced similar struggles, with new United boss Ruben Amorim excluding him from his plans. This led to a winter transfer window switch to Aston Villa, which includes a permanent purchase option.
Rashford made his Villa debut as a substitute in their FA Cup fourth-round victory over Tottenham. In response to images from the match shared on social media, Sancho commented with a single word—”freedom”—which many interpreted as a reference to both players escaping their difficulties at United.
Sancho’s contract with United runs until 2026, but Chelsea hold an option to extend his stay at Stamford Bridge. However, he has struggled for regular game time, starting only 13 Premier League matches and contributing two goals and six assists in 19 appearances across all competitions.
