Positive talks: Jadon Sancho edging closer to Man Utd exit as deal approved | OneFootball

Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho has reportedly indicated that he’d be ready to return to Borussia Dortmund on a free transfer this summer.

The 26-year-old is set to be out of contract at Old Trafford at the end of this season, which he has spent on loan at Aston Villa.

Sancho hasn’t made much of an impact during his spell at Villa Park, so it makes sense that he now looks set for another move, with Dortmund seemingly keen to bring him back for a third spell.

That’s according to Sky Sport Germany, who report that Sancho has given his approval for the move back to Dortmund, while the club’s manager Niko Kovac has also given his green light for the deal.

Jadon Sancho heading back to Borussia Dortmund?

Although Sky’s report also states that Sancho has interest from elsewhere, it seems he’s making BVB his priority this summer.

It’s not a done deal yet, but the report suggests that talks have been fairly advanced and that it’s all looking positive for the player to come back to Germany.

Sancho shone at Dortmund as a youngster, and also did well there in a brief return on loan a couple of years ago.

After such a difficult time at Man United, it could be a good move for Sancho to try going back to Dortmund again to revive his career.

Where did it go wrong for Sancho at United?

Sancho looked like an exciting signing when he first joined the Red Devils, but he was perhaps unfortunate to come at a time when the club was generally going through a tricky transitional period.

Cristiano Ronaldo also joined that summer, and would have impacted the kind of role Sancho was able to play in the team’s attack, while manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was also sacked not that long after he arrived.

Sancho is also far from the only big-name signing to struggle at United in recent times, with others like Paul Pogba, Angel Di Maria, Antony, and Andre Onana among the biggest flops of the post-Sir Alex Ferguson era.
