Manchester United forward Jadon Sancho has rejoined former club Borussia Dortmund on loan till the end of three season, with no option to buy.
The 23-year-old signed for Manchester United in a £73m deal from Dortmund in July 2021, but has not played for United in the last five months after falling out with manager Erik ten Hag and has been training away from the first team since September.
After putting pen to paper to join Dortmund on Thursday, Sancho said, “When I came into the dressing room today, it felt like ‘coming home.
“I know the club inside and out, I’ve always been very close with the fans here, and I’ve never lost contact with those in charge.
“I can’t wait to see my team-mates again, go out on the pitch, play football with a smile on my face, prepare goals, score goals and help qualify for the Champions League.”
United had been open to offers for the 23-year-old with no resolution to the stand-off in sight, and he has now completed a temporary move back to Germany.
Sancho’s contract at Manchester United is valid until 2026, with United holding the option to extend for a further year. Before moving to Old Trafford in 2021, Sancho scored 50 goals and registered 64 assists in 137 appearances for Dortmund.
