Manchester United is too small for a player of His Caliber,He should join club like Chelsea that Has title winning mentality or Else Ten Hag will destroy His career”, Chelsea legend Didier Drogba tells One Man United player to find His way out of the club if He really wants to Excel in His career.
Former Chelsea legend Didier Drogba has urged Jadon Sancho to consider leaving Manchester United if he wants to further his career. Drogba suggests that joining a club with a winning culture, such as Chelsea, could better serve Sancho’s ambitions than remaining under Erik ten Hag at Manchester United, where Drogba fears his development might stall.
Reports indicate that Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) is keen to sign Sancho, who is reportedly excited about the possibility of moving to the French giants. Sancho, who spent part of the last season on loan at Borussia Dortmund and performed notably well, has had a tumultuous relationship with Manchester United’s manager Erik ten Hag. The winger has accused Ten Hag of making him a “scapegoat” following public criticisms.
Sancho, purchased by Manchester United from Borussia Dortmund for £73 million in July 2021, has not featured in a competitive match for the club since their victory over Nottingham Forest in August of last year. Although efforts have been made to mend fences between Sancho and Ten Hag, including Sancho’s participation in a pre-season friendly against Rangers, the possibility of a summer transfer remains open. Manchester United is reportedly willing to consider selling Sancho, particularly as the improved rapport between the player and manager could facilitate negotiations.
During his successful loan spell at Borussia Dortmund, Sancho stood out, particularly in the Champions League semi-final against PSG, where his performance was pivotal in their first-leg victory. This form has kept him on PSG’s radar as they look to bolster their squad.
According to Santi Aouna of Foot Mercato, PSG is nearing an agreement with Sancho, though it is unclear whether Manchester United will agree to the transfer and for what fee. Borussia Dortmund had also expressed interest in re-signing Sancho but could not match the financial demands. Other major clubs, including Barcelona and Juventus, have shown interest, but PSG appears to be the frontrunner. Manchester United’s owner, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, is reportedly seeking around €50 million (£42 million) for the winger. PSG’s intensified interest follows Kylian Mbappe’s move to Real Madrid, making Sancho a desirable addition.
Aouna further reports that Sancho is enthusiastic about PSG’s project and eager to join after receiving their contract offer. This transfer could also benefit Manchester United, as they are in discussions with PSG regarding Manuel Ugarte’s transfer.
Drogba’s advice underscores the ongoing speculation surrounding Sancho’s future. Moving to a club with a winning pedigree like Chelsea or PSG could provide Sancho with the platform he needs to fulfill his potential and achieve greater success. As the transfer window unfolds, it will be intriguing to see where Sancho ends up and how this move impacts his career trajectory.
