Jadon Sancho’s time at Manchester United is nearly up.
The England winger looks destined to return to the club that Manchester United signed him from, with Jadon Sancho reuniting with the Yellow Wall of Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga. Despite this being a loan deal, we’re pretty sure he’s played his last game in Manchester.
It always looked like curtains at Old Trafford for the £73m man since he had his very public fallout with Erik ten Hag, which has cost Manchester United a lot of money in the process.
Nevertheless – it was never meant to be. But, it would be slightly more shocking if this winger left Old Trafford in January… permanently.
Facundo Pellistri may leave Manchester United this January…
According to HITC, Manchester United have told Facundo Pellistri he can leave permanently in the January transfer window, with interest from Spain, Italy and France.
It was expected that Ten Hag may let Pellistri go on loan this January for some valuable game time, but this revelation suggests the £9m winger may be deemed surplus to requirements and exit Manchester altogether.
Pellistri has featured just 23 times in total for Manchester United since his arrival back in 2020. This season has been his ‘breakthrough’, but he’s still not getting the game time he probably desires – with just one Premier League start under his belt.
United are not convinced about the Uruguayan, and from what Ten Hag has seen – he’s not either. It may be best to cash in.
Amad Diallo also a wanted man…
HITC also suggest that United are considering options surrounding Amad Diallo, with his former club, Sunderland, interested.
The Black Cats are desperate to get him back to the Stadium of Light, but it remains to be seen if United will allow him to go.
Particularly if Pellistri and Sancho both depart – this one would seem like a wrong decision. That would leave Ten Hag with just Antony as an out-and-out right-winger for the rest of the 23/24 campaign.
