British media teamtalk reported on June 30 (hereinafter Korean time) 'Chelsea rejected the opportunity to sign Sancho'
Sancho was once a talent representing England. He started at Manchester City and exploded with potential at Dortmund. Love calls from all over the world poured in. Sancho wore United's jersey through the summer 2021 transfer window. The transfer fee was £73 million. It fell short of expectations. In the 2021-2022 season, he scored only three goals in 29 English Premier League (EPL) games and six goals in 26 league games in the 2022-2023 season. In particular, in September last year, he collided head-to-head with coach Erik ten Hag, causing controversy. Coach Ten Hach called Sancho's exclusion from the game 'Attitude Question' Sancho retorted 'I am an unfair scapegoat' Sancho was excluded from training as well as competition. Eventually, he moved to Dortmund on loan through the winter transfer window.
