While Manchester United’s summer has been largely shaped by high-profile incomings like Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha, the club continue to face challenges when it comes to outgoings.
Christian Eriksen and Victor Lindelof were among the first names to leave at the end of last season.
However, more exits are required to generate funds and streamline Ruben Amorim’s squad.
Players such as Antony and Alejandro Garnacho have had uncertain futures discussed internally, with Amorim insistent that only fully committed individuals remain part of his plans.
Yet Jadon Sancho’s situation remains the most prominent, with the 25-year-old completely frozen out of first-team activities since the start of pre-season.
As news circulated earlier this week, Sancho is prepared to take a pay cut to return to Borussia Dortmund.
While the German club have already held internal discussions about a possible move, with Dortmund remaining keen on making an attacking signing.
Now, fresh reports from Dharmesh Sheth of Sky Sports News confirm that Borussia Dortmund are actively pushing to re-sign Sancho before the end of the window.
While no formal offer has been made at this stage, Dortmund are said to be exploring the conditions of a potential deal.
United ideally, are looking for a permanent transfer.
However, the Red Devils are also open to a loan should no suitable sale materialise.
Juventus, Napoli, and multiple Saudi Pro League clubs have expressed interest in Sancho.
Although the player’s priority remains a return to Dortmund, where he previously enjoyed his best form.
Sancho’s exit now feels inevitable, and Dortmund’s growing push could soon force movement – whether through a structured loan or permanent agreement.
United fans will be hoping the club can get Sancho out the door on a permanent basis, come the start of the new season.
The longer the saga continues, the more it may distract on-pitch matters.
Amorim is evidently shifting the culture within the club, and that involves bringing in players who only want to play for United with the right attitude and mentality.
