Getafe make offer to sign free agent Sancho

Spanish club Getafe has submitted a formal offer to sign former Manchester United player Jadon Sancho. The 26-year-old winger is currently without a contract after his previous deal with the Red Devils expired in the summer months. The Brazilian-born forward has been exploring various options during this period. Getafe, who currently sit in the 14th position within La Liga and are participating in the Europa Conference League this season, are eager to reach a mutually beneficial agreement.

The Spanish outfit, who have ascertained Sancho's preference for a move away from the English football scene, are open to exploring all possible avenues. Meanwhile, former Real Madrid legend Dani Carvajal, who had been jobless following his time at the Bernabeu, has joined Getafe on a free transfer. The 34-year-old Spanish right-back, who picked up 27 trophies with Madrid, including six Champions League titles, has signed a deal until June 2027.

During the previous season, Sancho was on loan at Aston Villa, appearing in 39 games as Emery's team secured a Champions League qualification and Europa League success. He also had stints at both Dortmund and Chelsea during his five-year tenure at Old Trafford. Sancho, who signed for Chelsea on a £5m loan deal in the 2024-25 campaign, was subsequently obliged to return to Manchester United after paying a £5m penalty.

The Englishman has been sharing training footage on his Instagram account, while continuing his quest for a new club, even visiting non-league side Flixton for a trial, who had to clarify that the former England international was not pursuing a career with their North West Counties team.
