English international Jadon Sancho is reportedly eager to leave Manchester United as early as January. The forward arrived at Old Trafford with high expectations from Borussia Dortmund, but his stint in his homeland hasn’t gone well, particularly under the management of Erik ten Hag.
The Dutchman sidelined Sancho from the first team and made it clear that he has no immediate plans to rely on him. According to information from Bild, German club RB Leipzig is prepared to make an official offer for the English forward. Negotiations between the two parties are expected to commence in the coming weeks.
A significant hurdle in the current situation is Sancho’s substantial salary, amounting to £17 million per season. This is a sum that RB Leipzig may find challenging to afford. However, it’s quite likely that Sancho himself might make substantial concessions and reduce his compensation to facilitate a transfer to Germany.
