Revealed: The three Premier League clubs 'interested in signing Jadon Sancho' after Chelsea paid £5m to send him back to Man United
The three Premier League clubs interested in signing Jadon Sancho this summer have been revealed, according to a report. The former England star had hoped to reboot his career with Chelsea after falling out of favour at Manchester United on the back of a public fallout with former manager Erik ten Hag. Ten Hag had criticised Sancho's performances in training after he was left out of a squad to face Arsenal in 2023, with the player branding the words 'completely untrue' in a social media post that was later deleted. The situation resulted in Ten Hag demanding an apology, and Sancho refusing to give one - he did not play for the Dutchman again and went on loan to Chelsea after a brief spell at former club Borussia Dortmund. The Blues had the chance to sign him permanently for £25million this summer - a fraction of the £73m United had paid four years prior. They instead, though, opted to pay £5m to cancel the deal, with Sancho now heading back to United. His future remains unclear, but, according to The Sun, there are three English top flight sides looking to acquire the former England winger on a permanent deal. One of those sides is said to be Tottenham, who have the pulling power of the Champions League after qualifying for the competition by winning the Europa League. Thomas Frank is set to be announced as the new manager of Spurs, and could make Sancho one of his first signings, if the report is to be believed. Another club is Aston Villa, who are also in Europe, but had to settle for Europa League qualification after failing to finish in the top five of the Premier League when they lost against United on the final day of the season. Villa took Marcus Rashford - another United outcast - on loan for the second half of last season, and turned the forward's form around after he had fallen completely out of favour at Old Trafford, being criticised by Ruben Amorim. There is therefore evidence that Villa and Unai Emery can turn players' fortunes around, which could be an attractive prospect for Sancho. The third side is Newcastle, who, like Spurs, are in the Champions League. They have long been in the market for a right-sided forward, and Sancho fits the bill. It is reported that Villa are keen on a loan deal, but United would prefer a permanent transfer to make additions to their side. Dortmund - the German side who Sancho played for twice - were also interested in a move. Sancho took to social media to thank the Blues for his time at the club after it was made clear that Chelsea would not be making the loan deal permanent. 'Grateful for the experience,' Sancho wrote to his 10.4m Instagram followers. 'Big love to everyone at Chelsea who made me feel at home - team-mates, staff, and the fans. 'Wishing the club all the best moving forward. Truly grateful, thank you Blues.' The message accompanied a compilation of some of Sancho's best moments in a Blues shirt, including Premier League and Conference League efforts. Sancho struggled for consistency over the 2024-25 season, though he did score in the Conference League final against Real Betis, which Chelsea won 4-1.

Jadon Sancho at centre of three-way Premier League transfer battle with Man Utd misfit not part of Ruben Amorim's plans
THREE Premier League clubs are battling to sign Jadon Sancho, SunSport can reveal. The former Borussia Dortmund winger is back at Manchester United after Chelsea rejected the chance to make his move permanent. 4 4 Manager Ruben Amorim has no plans to integrate Sancho back into his first team - meaning the 25-year-old is searching for a fresh start. And SunSport understands Aston Villa, Tottenham and Newcastle are all monitoring developments. Villa are thought to be keen on a loan deal for the player, but United would prefer cash to free up funds for a rebuild. Newcastle and Tottenham both see Sancho as a strong option as they look to build squads that can compete in the League and the Champions League. Borussia Dortmund were also tracking Sancho, but they've now opted for Jobe Bellingham. Despite netting in the 4-1 Europa Conference League final win over Real Betis, Sancho couldn't seal a £25million switch to Chelsea. Chelsea had initially loaned Sancho from United and had agreed to buy him for £25million, unless they dropped below 14th or coughed up a £5m penalty clause. Now, Chelsea's eyes are set on a range of wingers, including Jamie Byroe-Gittens and Nico Williams of Borussia Dortmund and Athletic Bilbao, respectively. Jadon Sancho shares his Chelsea highlights reel as he says goodbye to fans ahead of Man Utd return 4 They are still linked with Sancho's team-mate Alejandro Garnacho, who looks to have been banished to the wilderness by Ruben Amorim in a similar fallout to the one Sancho had with Erik ten Hag. United have set a staggering £70m asking price on the Argentine winger. Garnacho is viewed as one of United's sellable assets this summer as he is considered homegrown, although he does have three years remaining on his contract. Chelsea today confirmed Sancho's return to Man Utd in a 92-word statement on the club website. It said: "Sancho, 25, joined on a season-long loan on August 31 2024 and went on to make a total of 41 appearances for the club. "The winger registered five goals during his time at Stamford Bridge, with his final strike coming in the Blues' UEFA Conference League Final victory against Real Betis on May 28. "Everyone at Chelsea would like to thank Jadon for his efforts and we wish him every success for the future." 4
