Manchester United to leave Jadon Sancho’s future in Ruben Amorim’s hands

Manchester United will Ruben Amorim to decide Jadon Sancho’s future if the winger returns to Old Trafford this summer, according to reports.

Sancho’s future remains uncertain after an underwhelming loan spell at Chelsea, where he has struggled to make an impact.

The England international has failed to find his rhythm at Stamford Bridge and came under heavy criticism for his anonymous display in Chelsea’s 1-0 defeat to Arsenal on Sunday.

As a result, plans for him to join the club permanently now appear unlikely.

Chelsea initially agreed to sign Sancho for £25million if they finished higher than 14th in the Premier League – a scenario that now seems inevitable, with the Blues currently sitting fourth in the table.

However, reports suggest the club could opt to pay a substantial fee to release themselves from that obligation, allowing Sancho to return to Manchester United.

Should that happen, Amorim will have the final say on whether Sancho remains part of his squad or is sold, according to ESPN.

The Portuguese manager is reportedly planning a major squad overhaul at United this summer, with as many as eight players expected to leave – and Sancho is believed to be among those under consideration for an exit.
