BVB plan revealed: Sancho comeback still possible? | OneFootball

Borussia Dortmund are still keeping the door open for Jadon Sancho’s return. However, a transfer to BVB would only be possible under clear conditions.

Jadon Sancho has been without a club since July 1. After his contract with Manchester United expired, the English winger is now free to look for a new club on a free transfer. Borussia Dortmund are also still considering a possible return for the 26-year-old — but only under clearly defined conditions.

As Sport Bild reports, there are currently no talks between BVB and Sancho, nor any contact with his agent. Dortmund want to wait and see how the situation develops. However, if the former England international is still without a club toward the end of the transfer window, Borussia Dortmund could make a concrete move. Those in charge, led by sporting director Ole Book, apparently have a clear plan in mind.

A possible offer would reportedly include a base salary of less than five million euros per year. Through performance-related bonuses, Sancho could significantly increase his earnings, but even then he would not be among the top earners in the squad. That would mean the attacking player would have to accept a substantial pay cut compared to his last contract at Manchester United, where he is said to have earned around 15 million euros per season.

BVB have a plan for Sancho: Return remains an option

Dortmund’s caution is not due to financial reasons alone, however. According to Sport Bild, Sancho’s performances last season were closely monitored. Scouts are said to have watched the attacker several times in person, while Ole Book reportedly also carried out extensive video analysis. The club’s internal conclusion: Sancho has recently been unable to recapture the form that once made him such a sensation at BVB.

Sancho moved from Borussia Dortmund to Manchester United in 2021 for around 85 million euros, but he was never able to consistently live up to the high expectations in England. Even so, the door at BVB apparently remains slightly open.

After all, Sancho enjoyed the most successful spell of his career in Dortmund so far, won the DFB-Pokal in 2021, and developed into one of Europe’s best wingers. If no other club makes a move before the end of the transfer window and the Englishman is willing to accept a significant wage cut, a third chapter in black and yellow could still become reality.
