As the PSG vs. Borussia Dortmund Champions League semi-final ended, everyone was talking about Jadon Sancho. The English player played amazingly, reminding everyone why Manchester United paid £73 million for him in 2021.
He outperformed Kylian Mbappe, which was impressive. People are excited to see him playing so well again, and some are even wondering if he might join the England squad for the Euros. However, what happens after that is still unclear.
“I really don’t know, I’m focused on the present right now.” Sancho replied when CBS Sports asked him where he’ll play next season.
Uncertainty Surrounds Sancho’s Future
As of now, he’s expected to go back to Manchester. Even though it’s becoming less likely that Erik ten Hag will be the next manager at Old Trafford, it’s still not clear if Manchester United will want Sancho for the next season.
Manchester United needs to sell players to meet financial rules, so it’s uncertain if Sancho will stay. With his recent good performances in Germany, other clubs will probably want to sign him. Dortmund might be the first choice, but should Arsenal also try to get him?
Arteta’s Magic: Can Jadon Sancho Spark Arsenal’s Resurgence
Remember those young players who started out strong but then struggled? Well, Mikel Arteta, Arsenal’s manager, has a knack for helping them bounce back. He did it with Kai Havertz and Martin Odegaard, turning them into top players again after others gave up on them.
Now, let’s talk about Jadon Sancho. He could be a great fit for Arsenal. Right now, they don’t have strong competition for Bukayo Saka, who’s been carrying a heavy load lately. Sancho could step into that role easily. Plus, Arsenal could use him on the left side too, where they haven’t found a consistent starter this season.
“I experience Jadon has changed, I experience him as more mature in his personality. He knows that he is challenged and that he is coming to Borussia Dortmund in a different role.”
“He’s always on time – even over-punctual. He seems incredibly motivated and committed and to see such a player on the pitch is fantastic. I think we’ll have fewer problems than in the past.” Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl said in January.
