Sancho is probably negotiating FIFA points into his payment structure.

Though the glamour of LA might be appealing - I hope he choses PSV. Could have a real impact there.

Ideally the decision would be up to the club, not up to him.

That said, we should really just sell with a buyback clause. This system of sending players on endless loans doesn't work very well, and he's never looked all that great anyway.

BVB is facing a major upheaval: Hans-Joachim Watzke will step down as managing director in 2025. The Sancho deal is progressing very slowly.

Whilst United are okay with Dortmund paying €3.5m in total for the whole loan spell (fee + wages), United were never keen on paying the rest of Sancho's wages. This is where the hold-up has been the whole time: United want Sancho to forego some of his wages or have Dortmund cover the rest of them if he doesn't want to let go.

Pellistri to LA would be disappointing even if I understand it could be because it’s closer to home. He can forge a good career in Europe, especially in the Netherlands.

Music to my ears, don't the let the lazy waster off easily. If he wants to play top level football again this season then it's got to cost him big money.

The dude clearly seems to not care about footballing success on personal level anymore, based on what I've read recently around the loan move to Borussia.
Starting to understand EtH's point of view, but also hoping I am wrong as in the end and he'll grow up..

With Garnacho, Diallo and Antony all probably ahead of him for the right side spot I really think a sale makes the most sense. Especially if they are also in for Olise as reported. Personally not been convinced he's it from what I've seen of him anyway.

Sancho, the guy just doesn't seem arsed/bothered. Has the chance to resurrect his season at a club he was hugely influential at but you get the sense he's just ambivalent with it all.

I doubt he cares that much about football. He got his fat paycheck and that is.

Wasn't there Spurs right back who say that he hate football and its just job for him.

You’d think a professional footballer would want to play football, but I feel like given the option of never playing again and instead just being rich, he’d take the latter.

Sancho is going to be exactly the same as martial.

We will not get rid of him until his contract runs out because he knows he’s getting over double his value in wages and like Martial he doesn’t actually care about his football career

It's only two more years after this season so if we agreed to pay up half his wages or something it could cost us around £15-16m. It might be worth it.

€3 million ffs! With wages included it's not a great deal but at least he'd be away and it would free up wages for a loan.

The wages he is on makes it hard to get anything out of a loan.

No buy out option? That probably means we want to sell him in the summer hoping his price will rise up a bit.

Anyway good riddance.
