Sancho Ready to Halve His Salary for Borussia Dortmund Return
Sancho Ready to Halve His Salary for Borussia Dortmund Return
Jadon Sancho's pushing hard for return to Borussia Dortmund even offering to cut his salary by half according to reports from Germany.
From Old Trafford to Exile
Since joining Man United from Dortmund in 2021, Sancho 25 has failed to live up to expectations at Old Trafford. Despite showing glimpses of form during loan spell at Chelsea where he helped win the Conference league, the Blues opted not to keep him going so far as to pay 5 million sterling pound penalty to avoid triggering permanent deal.
United Want Him Gone
United're now seeking to offload the winger and his £300000 a week contract with Sancho reportedly excluded from both matchday squads and even fringe training groups under manager Ruben Amorim.
According to Bild, Sancho's offered to reduce his wage to 150000 sterling pound per week to facilitate ermanent move back to Signal Iduna Park.
Even at that rate, he'd still be among the top earners at Dortmund behind only Niklas Sule (£230000 /week).
Sancho's Legacy in Germany
Sancho previously shone at Dortmund between 2017 & 2021 scoring 38 goal in 104 Bundesliga games before short loan return in 2024 helping the club reach the Champions league final.
Across all competitions he's 158 appearances, 53 goal and 67 assist in yellow & black.

Despondent Hamilton and Ferrari crash back to earth
Lewis Hamilton and Ferrari crashed back to earth on Sunday when 24 hours after Charles Leclerc claimed the team's first pole of 2025 they left Hungary frustrated and dejected. Seven-time world champion Hamilton, who on Saturday said he was "completely useless" to the team and ready to be replaced, wound up 12th while Leclerc dropped from race leader to a grumbling fourth. Hamilton, backed beforehand by team boss Fred Vasseur, was in a bleak mood suggesting that he remained trapped by a crisis of confidence that has turned his spectacular marquee signing for Ferrari into a nightmare. "When you have a feeling, you have a feeling," he said enigmatically, responding to a question about his comment suggesting that he was no longer good enough for Ferrari and should be replaced. He added: "There's a lot going on in the background that isn't great." Asked if he still loved racing, he replied to say he did, but with little conviction. Leclerc appeared to be little happier after he had failed to convert pole into victory for the 15th time in 16 attempts during the last three years. His one success came in last year's Monaco Grand Prix, his home event. "We lost a podium, so I am very disappointed," said Leclerc, having warned the team during the race that they had bungled his car's set-up in some unspecified way. "But I spoke too quickly because being out of the car, I had a bit more detail about what went on," he added later. "I thought it was about something else that we had discussed, but unfortunately it was on the chassis. "There was an issue on that side and we will look into it for it not to happen again. It doesn't really make me feel any better because when you're fighting for a win, and then you have these kind of issues, it never happens. "We need to look into it to make sure it never happens again because the car was just undriveable. "It was around lap 40 because as soon as I started to struggle and to complain, it was basically when we started to have the issue and it got worse and worse. "It's very frustrating to have everything under control, to know that the pace is in the car to win, and then you end up being nowhere. We lost a podium.' Hamilton, 40, winner of a record eight Hungarian Grands Prix and a record nine poles at the circuit, finished where he started and with his worst result at the circuit, inevitably sparking talk of his possible retirement. But as he headed off towards a summer break, he could look at the joy in the Aston Martin garage where, despite a back muscle injury, his one-time McLaren team-mate Fernando Alonso had finished a season's best fifth, aged 44. str/nr

Fan's View: A start we didn't want or deserve
With all the excitement of a new season, where better to start than Edgeley Park, the scene of our heaviest and most humiliating defeat last season? A chance to assess our chances in League 1, after all the changes we have made during the summer break. Everybody was trying to pick their starting eleven, after witnessing an unbeaten and very encouraging pre-season. Hopes were high of getting something at Stockport. In the end Steven Schumacher went for his Preston line up with new loanee, Mason Burstow up front, replacing Daeshon Lawrence. Stockport kindly gave us the uncovered Railway End but the continuous drizzle did nothing to dampen our spirits. Stockport started as they meant to go on with Teddy Sharman Lowe being barged unceremoniously into the advertising hoardings. The referee did not even give the free kick, never mind take any appropriate action. Bolton were by far the better team in the first half but they squandered several good chances, hit the woodwork twice and had at least one, if not two shouts for a penalty. Luck was on Stockport 's side, when they got a deflected goal with virtually the last kick of the half. In the second half, Stockport upped their game, rather than Bolton. They harried us all over the pitch, giving nobody any space. We did have chances but again we failed to take them and paid the ultimate price when they headed home in added time. So, we start with a disappointing defeat, not what we were hoping for. We didn't play bad and with a bit more luck, could have got something from this game. But we didn't and we have got to look at where it went wrong. We need to improve our finishing. At times, our defence was quite open, especially down their left wing. Our central defenders struggled with crosses throughout the match. On the plus side, four new players made their league debuts for us, with another one coming on later. It will take time for the new players and tactics to gel. We have plenty to work on during next week and hopefully put things right against Plymouth Argyle next Saturday. My hopes are still up there and with more signings imminent and some departures likely, things can only get better. We will need time for it to come together, so let's cut the Wanderers some slack for now.

Veteran Howson OK with Boro promotion 'failure'
Jonny Howson said he has no regrets at his failure to take Middlesbrough back into the Premier League. The midfielder left Boro last month after eight years on Teesside in which he played 341 games for the club, scoring 10 goals. The 37-year-old arrived at the Riverside from Norwich City in 2017 just after Boro had been relegated from the top flight but he was never part of a promotion campaign. "For why I came to this club, it was to gain promotion and go back and play in the Premier League with a terrific, well-supported club," he told BBC Radio Tees. "If you're basing it on that, I have failed, and I'm fine with that because I've given it everything I've got." 'I've had life moments here' Howson played under six permanent bosses at Middlesbrough and helped his team reach the play-offs on two occasions, although they lost in the semi-finals in both 2018 and 2023. He was part of the side that enjoyed memorable FA Cup successes over Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur in the 2021-22 season, and a Carabao Cup semi-final win over Chelsea in the first leg in January 2024, before the second leg ended in a heavy defeat. And the Middlesbrough supporters showed what they thought of Howson's efforts in the pre-season friendly at Rangers as a banner in the away end at Ibrox read: '8 years of loyalty and leadership. Thank you Jonny.' "I probably never thought I'd have eight goes at it, so that's a success in itself," Howson said. "I can look back at my time and be proud because we've created other memories. "Sometimes in life you don't get maybe what you deserve or what you want, but I've got no problem with that. "Look at the other stuff I've created, the people I've met. Promotion and playing in the Premier League is a football thing, but I've had life moments here, which are bigger than that."
