Borussia Dortmund chief admits German club want to keep Jadon Sancho

Jadon Sancho seems to have found his feet in the Bundesliga again as the winger is ending the season in stunning form, with his performance against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League semi-finals, in particular, catching the eyes of onlookers.

Sancho has not featured for United since August last year after a public feud with manager Erik ten Hag, with the former Manchester City youngster banished from first-team training as a result.

Sancho rejoined Borussia Dortmund on loan in the January transfer window and since then, he has been a regular fixture in their side.

There has been speculation surrounding his future since that feud with Ten Hag was made public and now, Dortmund director Sebastian Kehl has revealed that the German giants are keen on keeping him, insisting they will do everything to make that happen.

“We will try everything to keep Jadon Sancho here,” Kehl told Welt, via Fabrizio Romano.

“But Manchester United also sees how well he is playing at the moment. Maybe they also want to sell him for profit or bring him back. We will see.”

There have been no indications that Sancho and Ten Hag have repaired their relationship but the manager’s future is also far from certain.

Ten Hag is facing immense pressure to keep his job beyond this summer, with Thomas Tuchel becoming the latest man to be linked with a move to become his replacement at Old Trafford.

In any case, Sancho is United’s best chance of generating funds this summer as they look to comply with Financial Fair Play regulations.

The lack of Champions League football next season will have dented United’s already limited spending power in INEOS’ first summer transfer window in charge of the club.
