Borussia Dortmund Admits Permanent Signing of Sancho Will Be “Very, Very Difficult,” Dealing Blow to Man Utd’s Transfer Plans

Introduction to the Article
Manchester United’s attempts to offload Jadon Sancho permanently have suffered a major setback, as Borussia Dortmund’s sporting director has cast doubt over the possibility of agreeing to a permanent transfer with the English forward.

Doubt Over Permanent Transfer

Sebastian Kehl, the sporting director of Borussia Dortmund, has indicated that it is unlikely for the club to keep Sancho beyond the summer. Despite Sancho’s successful return to the Bundesliga giants, there is no option to buy clause in the loan deal, making a permanent transfer more difficult.

Strained Relationship with Manager

Sancho’s return to Dortmund comes after a public spat with Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag. The winger had been left out of the squad for some games and had criticized Ten Hag for making him a “scapegoat.” The strained relationship between the player and manager remains unresolved.

Positive Start at Dortmund

Despite the uncertainties surrounding his future, Sancho has had a positive start in his second spell with Borussia Dortmund. He has already provided two assists in his first three appearances for the Bundesliga club, which could potentially enhance his reputation and value in the transfer market.
