Real Betis eye loan move for Manchester United's Jadon Sancho
Real Betis are weighing up a loan move for Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho. According to the Spanish club are exploring the loan market again after a successful short-term deal brought Antony to Seville last season. Advertisement Club officials believe manager Manuel Pellegrini could work similar wonders with Sancho in a less pressurised environment. Sancho, 25, is due back at United on 1 July, with Chelsea opting not to make his loan move permanent. The London side failed to reach agreement over personal terms, despite the deal including an obligation to buy worth up to £25 million. During his season-long stay, Sancho helped Chelsea secure fourth place in the Premier League and scored in the UEFA Conference League final, ironically against Betis. His contribution improved his reputation after a difficult start to life at United. Advertisement Post-match comments suggested Sancho was open to remaining at Stamford Bridge. 'From now on is when we sit down with the club and decide about next year,' he told TNT Sports after the final in Athens. Despite Chelsea's appreciation for Sancho's role in a strong finish to the campaign, the financial terms of a permanent deal proved prohibitive. That opens the door for clubs like Betis, who are hoping United will sanction another temporary move. Sancho joined United from Borussia Dortmund in 2021 for £85 million, but has struggled for consistency. A high-profile falling out with Erik ten Hag saw him exiled from the first-team squad before his loan switch in August. Advertisement He has made 83 appearances for United, scoring 12 goals, but his career in Manchester has been defined more by potential than output. Moments of brilliance — such as goals against Tottenham and Ipswich, have been the exception rather than the rule. A loan move to Betis would give Sancho the chance to reset in a competitive but less intense setting. The La Liga side see the England international as a potentially transformative figure under Pellegrini's guidance. With United open to finding a solution for a player on high wages and Sancho eager to play regularly, Betis' interest could soon turn into a formal proposal. Follow us on Bluesky: @

Unbelievable decision!Eduardo: I think it's sad as he has been an important player for us this season. He is extremely talented and would have been a great permanent addition. We should have made it Good decision. Wages too high and, with Neto and Sterling, we are overloaded out wide when we need a A club paying £5m to send the loanee back to the parent club says a lot. Not surprised Chelsea are sending him back. A player that flatters to deceive at best, completely absent and uninspiring at worst. Nowhere near the England set-up. The guy needs a reality It seems that once he became comfortable, he stopped really trying both to create opportunities for his team-mates and to score himself. The right decision has been Sancho would be a squad player at Chelsea. If he couldn't accept the club's wage structure then so be it. It's a bit of a shame, but not a big deal.
