The football world has been buzzing with rumors that Chelsea may be interested in bringing in Jadon Sancho, who has been struggling to find his place at Manchester United. As the transfer window draws to a close, the Blues are seriously considering making an offer for the talented winger.
It has been an eventful summer for Chelsea, with a new manager, Enzo Maresca, taking the reins from Mauricio Pochettino and a string of new signings. Fans got a glimpse of what the new-look team is capable of in their recent match against Wolves, which ended in a resounding 6-2 victory. Despite Noni Madueke's first Premier League hat-trick, Chelsea is still on the lookout for another winger to bolster their ranks.
Meanwhile, Sancho's future at Old Trafford is once again up in the air after being left out of the matchday squad for Saturday's defeat against Brighton. The player had previously fallen out with Erik ten Hag and was subsequently loaned to Borussia Dortmund. However, he was brought back into the fold after apologizing for his behavior. But with the emergence of Amad Diallo, Sancho seems to be surplus to requirements once again, and Chelsea is considering taking advantage of the situation.
In order to entice United into letting go of Sancho, Chelsea is reportedly willing to offer one of two players in a potential swap deal. Both Ben Chilwell and Raheem Sterling, who are not part of Maresca's plans, could potentially fill gaps in United's squad. Chilwell could provide cover for the injured Luke Shaw at left-back, while Sancho's departure would leave United reliant on Diallo, Alejandro Garnacho, and an out-of-form Marcus Rashford on the wings.
Maresca has already shown that he is willing to operate without some of his current wingers, as evidenced by his decision to substitute Mykhailo Mudryk at half-time in their recent game against Wolves. When asked about the substitution, the manager bluntly stated that he was not happy with Mudryk's performance and expected more quality from him on the ball.
Clearly, Chelsea is serious about adding Sancho to their squad and is willing to make some bold moves to make it happen. Fans can only wait and see if the deal will come to fruition before the transfer window closes.
