Look out, BVB! Top club eye move for Jadon Sancho | OneFootball

Will they reunite? Jadon Sancho and Borussia Dortmund are still going their separate ways. Now, however, a top club has set its sights on the 26-year-old Englishman.

Since July 1, 2026, Sancho has been without a club following his departure from Manchester United. Despite numerous rumors, no new move has materialized to this day. A return to BVB also currently seems a long way off.

It is quite possible that the Black and Yellows will soon be able to shelve any efforts to sign Sancho. According to information from fichajes.net, Atlético Madrid are working on a move for the left winger. He is said to be right at the top of the Colchoneros’ wishlist.

Outstanding record at BVB

The Madrid side are searching for a strong dribbling winger who excels in one-on-one situations. They are therefore currently assessing how feasible the transfer would be. Since Sancho is available on a free transfer, he is considered a highly attractive option.

However, the decisive factor in negotiations is likely to be his salary, the report says. At his last club, Manchester United, he earned according to SPORT BILD an estimated €15 million per year. But for potential suitors such as Borussia Dortmund, speculation points to a basic salary of no more than five to seven million euros.

Last season, Sancho played on loan for Aston Villa. He made 39 appearances, but found the back of the net only once. His three assists are also not exactly a strong proof of quality. At least he did win the Europa League. However, the Villans declined to sign him permanently.

During his first spell at Borussia Dortmund, the 23-cap international posted very different numbers. From 2017 to 2021, the Englishman made 137 appearances for BVB, scoring 50 goals and providing 64 assists. In Madrid, those in charge appear to remember that record and hope Sancho can recapture that form.
