Jadon Sancho's 'behaviour in Chelsea training' speaks volumes amid bombshell transfer twist

Jadon Sancho's 'behaviour' in Chelsea training speaks volumes amid rumours of a bombshell transfer twist.

Sancho was banished from Manchester United's first-team following his public dispute with Erik ten Hag, who was relieved of his duties at Old Trafford last October.

Ten Hag is still out of a job but in a recent interview, he aimed a thinly-veiled dig at Sancho following their fallout.

Sancho was offloaded last summer, with Chelsea securing his services on an initial loan.

The deal includes an obligation for Chelsea to sign the 24-year-old for between £20-25 million next summer, having joined Man United for £73 million in the summer of 2021.

However, Chelsea are considering whether to pay a 'significant fee' to get out of their obligation to buy Sancho from Man United this summer.

According to The I Paper, there is a clause in the deal where Chelsea can get out of the transfer if they pay a 'penalty fee', something they are understood to be considering as an option.

Chelsea plan to stick to the terms of their original agreement, but having already signed a new winger, the club could cut their losses on Sancho.

The decision to sign Chelsea is out of the player's hands, having already impressed Enzo Maresca in training.

Per Give Me Sport, Maresca was impressed by Sancho's attitude and commitment.

Sources have stated that during his first week at the club, Sancho consistently arrived at training earlier than scheduled.

At the time, Maresca was 'very happy' with Sancho. He said: "Very happy, very happy for him. He was very good.

"I have a feeling that Jadon is a guy that needs love. This is what I thought when I spoke with him before he joined us.

"Also I know he has the desire to show the player he is, but for me, it is just to enjoy football. This is the reason why they play. Jadon helped us a lot but what he did tonight is exactly what we expected from him. As I said, I know Jadon very good because I watched him many, many times in the past and I know what he can give us."

Sancho has scored two goals in 28 games across all competitions for Chelsea this season.
