Jadon Sancho is on the verge of leaving Manchester United but it looks like the club will have to sit patiently to get things done.

Sancho has had a miserable time of things at Old Trafford. After falling out with Erik ten Hag, things have been at a stalemate and Ten Hag has refused to pick the winger.

A move back to Borussia Dortmund is on the cards for Sancho though. It will bring his United nightmare to an end for now at least.

However, according to Sky Germany’s Patrick Berger, everything is still not 100% done and any notion of things being completed this weekend could actually be wide of the mark.

Taking to social media over on X, Berger has confirmed that a private jet has yet to leave Manchester and that the deal could ‘drag on’ over the weekend.

Sancho will have to sit tight on this one

Major transfers can take some time to get over the line and it looks like Jadon Sancho is going to have ben patient on this one.

Right now, it very much looks like the deal is one and Sancho simply needs to sit tight and hope that things are ironed out in the coming days.

We’ve seen with United over the last few years that certain deals drag on a touch. And it might be the same with Sancho here, with the club getting all their ducks in a row.

The move to Dortmund represents what should be a major plus for Sancho in his career. He’s going back to a club and fanbase he knows well and with a bit of luck, he gets his confidence back.

After that, of course, it’s a case of who knows. United will hope he does well so they retain some value on a player who earns a whopping £250,000-a-week.
