Jadon Sancho could be on the move in the summer but in a surprise switch from Manchester United.
Though he appeared to patch things up with Erik ten Hag and returned to United for pre-season in 2024 after a stint back at Borussia Dortmund, Sancho was sent on loan to Chelsea on transfer deadline day.
In all competitions, Sancho has made 39 appearances and scored four times for Enzo Maresca's side, who are fifth in the Premier League and in the Conference League final.

However, the England international has not been overly convincing at Chelsea, who reportedly have an obligation to purchase him outright for £20 million, as well as a further £5 million if performance-related add-ons are met.
It had been reported that the Blues would have to trigger the clause if they finished inside the top 14.
That was confirmed to happen a long time ago, but there is reported interest in Sancho from elsewhere.

According to Turkish outlet Fanatik, Fenerbahce, managed by Jose Mourinho, are keen on the 25-year-old - with club president Ali Koc recently stating that the team "will speed up our wings in the new season".
Fener, who are second in the Turkish Super Lig, were linked with Sancho in the summer before he joined Chelsea.
They face competition for his signature, though, with former club Dortmund said to be looking into bringing him back for a third time and Bayer Leverkusen also in the mix as they look to replace talisman Florian Wirtz should he leave as expected.
Chelsea are understood to be against signing Sancho permanently even though there is an obligation to do so. However, there is a loophole which the Blues are reportedly looking to exploit.

As per The Mirror, the west London outfit are to set to pay a set fee £5 million as a penalty to United in order to waive their obligation to sign Sancho permanently, an arrangement David Ornstein reported on back in March.
As well as receiving that amount, United are looking for just less than £20 million to offload Sancho - who they paid £73 million for back in 2021.
