Free agent Sancho favours move abroad

Jadon Sancho, the 26-year-old winger, is reportedly inclined towards a move abroad even with lucrative offers from Premier League clubs. Six weeks after Manchester United released him, the former Borussia Dortmund star is evaluating his future. Sancho, who signed for United for £73m in 2021, is said to have a preference for playing abroad, although he is not ruling out other possibilities.

Last season, he spent time on loan at Aston Villa, contributing 39 appearances as they secured both Champions League qualification and Europa League success. He also had a stint at Chelsea this season, making 41 appearances under the terms of a buy-back clause, which United ultimately triggered by paying a £5m penalty. Currently, Sancho is in Flixton to stay fit ahead of the upcoming campaign.
