According to Sky Germany, Sancho has clearly communicated his willingness to pack his bags and return to his ultimate safe haven: Borussia Dortmund.

With his current loan spell at Aston Villa set to conclude simultaneously with his Old Trafford contract, he has been completely free to negotiate with foreign clubs since January 1.

Jadon Sancho to move back to Dortmund?

Now, a massive third stint in the famous Black and Yellow jersey is starting to look like a very concrete reality.

Sancho’s return to English football simply hasn’t gone according to the script.

After joining the Red Devils for a massive £73 million fee back in 2021, he struggled to consistently replicate the elite, world-class form that originally made him a superstar in Germany.

This season hasn’t exactly been a redemptive fairy tale either. Shipped out on loan to Aston Villa for the 2025/26 campaign, the 26-year-old has managed a disappointing return of just one goal and three assists across 33 appearances in all competitions.

Because of those underwhelming numbers, there is practically zero expectation of him extending his stay at Villa Park.

Meanwhile, the Man United boardroom is absolutely desperate to finally wipe his reported £300,000-a-week wages off their financial books.

The club has decided they won’t even trigger his one-year contract extension option just to try and desperately squeeze a transfer fee out of his departure.
