Right now, the English winger is on loan to Dortmund from Manchester United.
It is said that both Jude Bellingham and Zinedine Zidane have told Real Madrid to sign Manchester United’s Jadon Sancho.
Zidane tried to get Sancho to sign with Real Madrid in 2017, but he turned down the offer and instead moved to Borussia Dortmund, where he became a star player before joining Manchester United in 2021.
But he couldn’t get back to the form he had at Dortmund when he joined United. As his play got worse and his relationship with his new boss fell apart, he was sent back on loan to Germany. Because of this, he was relegated to a supporting part.
But Zinedine Zidane allegedly made getting Jadon Sancho a top priority before he signed with Manchester United again. He did this to get rid of the bad players from his old Real Madrid team in the summer and bring in some new talent for 2019.
The German newspaper Bild says that Zidane was ready to accept Dortmund’s asking price for Sancho, which is around 80 million euros. But it’s likely that the Bundesliga team thought he was worth more like $100 million. Other teams were also keeping an eye on the situation.
Real Madrid changed their approach during the transfer window and brought in more young players instead of experienced veterans in order to build a team for the future. The signings of Vincius, Rodrygo, and Bellingham have been very good for Madrid.
Sancho is not only young enough, but he has also played on the biggest stages. During his first season at Dortmund, people said that he could play as well as big stars. Another great player in his group was Leo Messi, and Eden Hazard was also in that group.
Dortmund “will do everything they can” to keep Jadon Sancho.Sebastian Kehl, the sports director at Borussia Dortmund, said that the team “will do everything” to keep Manchester United loanee Jadon Sancho until the end of the season.
Sancho signed a new six-month deal with Dortmund in January. He is tied to Manchester United until 2026. It was at Dortmund that he made his name before he moved to the Premier League for a lot of money in 2021.
The England player has had a tough time at United. Since getting into a fight with manager Erik ten Hag early in the season, he has only played once in three games off the bench.
