Following the expiration of his contract with Manchester United, the 26-year-old has been actively seeking a new team. According to a report on Tuesday, Sancho was reportedly set to sign a two-year deal with Brazilian side Palmeiras, with an option for a further year. However, Brazilian sports journalist Luiz Carlos Largo has debunked the story as fake. Largo, citing Brazilian sports channel BandSports, confirmed on X that Palmeiras had refuted the rumor, calling it \"madness\". The journalist added that the false information had been spread by streamer Spursito, who used a fraudulent account. Despite the fabricated transfer news, Sancho was also linked with a return to his former club, Borussia Dortmund. However, the German giants opted to sign Arsenal's Ethan Nwaneri on deadline day instead. The future of the former Bundesliga star remains unclear.",
