Enzo Maresca, the former Manchester United player, has been watching Jadon Sancho during a recent Chelsea training session and has been impressed by the young player's performance. Sancho joined Chelsea last summer from Manchester United, the club he supported as a child. He had a successful time at Borussia Dortmund, which earned him a big-money move to Manchester United in 2021. However, he struggled to make an impact with the Premier League giants and was mainly used as a substitute under former manager Erik ten Hag. This, coupled with a public disagreement with ten Hag, led to Sancho's departure from Manchester United last summer.
Chelsea signed Sancho on a loan deal until the end of the season, with an obligation to buy him next summer for a fee between £20-25m. The young English player has already made a promising start with Chelsea, helping the team emerge as surprise title contenders in the Premier League. Enzo Maresca has been particularly impressed with Sancho's form and admits that he has even "surprised" him.
Maresca praises Sancho for his consistency and believes that he has been a valuable addition to the team. He also acknowledges that it is not easy for players to perform consistently for a long period of time, but Sancho has managed to do so. Maresca is confident that Sancho will continue to perform well and help the team achieve their goals.
Former Chelsea defender Glen Johnson also believes that Sancho's move to Stamford Bridge could be the "best transfer deal ever". He points out that at a cost of only £23m, Sancho has already proven to be a valuable player for Chelsea. Johnson also credits the team's manager and backroom staff for getting the best out of Sancho, who was struggling at Manchester United.
Sancho himself admits that he is enjoying life at Chelsea and feels like he is back home, having grown up in London. He reveals that he always supported Chelsea as a child because of players like Frank Lampard and Didier Drogba. Sancho was also convinced to join Chelsea by Enzo Maresca, who showed him how he would fit into the team and help them achieve success. The young player is also excited about the prospect of working with a talented squad and is eager to use his experience to help the team, while also learning from his younger teammates. He believes that together, they can achieve great things for Chelsea.
