Jadon Sancho has recently expressed his excitement about joining the Chelsea ‘project’ after completing a move from Manchester United to the west London club. The 24-year-old winger signed an initial loan deal with Chelsea, which is set to be made permanent next summer.
Sources have revealed that Chelsea did not pay a loan fee for Sancho, with the majority of his wages for this season being covered by the club. The transfer fee could reportedly reach £25 million, depending on Chelsea’s success during the current season. Sancho expressed his delight at returning to London, where he grew up, and stated that he is looking forward to being part of the project that Chelsea has in store.
Sancho previously made a big-money switch from Borussia Dortmund to Manchester United in a deal worth €85 million. However, his time at Old Trafford was marred by struggles to replicate his form from his time in Germany. With just 12 goals and six assists in 83 appearances for United, Sancho found himself out of favor and left out of the squad for over a year.
The forward is now seeking to rebuild his career and reignite his potential at Chelsea. After a loan spell at former club Borussia Dortmund, where he helped the team reach the Champions League final at Wembley, Sancho is eager to make an impact at Chelsea. Despite earning 23 senior England caps, Sancho has not represented his country since 2021 and was left out of recent international tournaments.
Jadon Sancho’s move to Chelsea marks a fresh start for the talented winger, who is determined to make a positive impact and contribute with goals and assists at Stamford Bridge. The ‘project’ that Chelsea has in place has sparked excitement in the young player, and fans are eager to see him shine in the blue shirt. With his experience in top-level competitions and a hunger to succeed, Sancho’s journey at Chelsea promises to be an intriguing one.
