Former England and Arsenal striker Ian Wright has weighed in on Chelsea's recent acquisition of Jadon Sancho from Manchester United. In his opinion, the £25m deal will turn out to be a real bargain for the London club.
Sancho had a rather lackluster stint at Manchester United before joining Chelsea on loan last summer. However, it seems that the young player has found a better fit at Stamford Bridge, as he has already shown great improvement and happiness playing for the high-flying team.
Wright, who himself played for Arsenal and the English national team, is confident that Sancho will prove himself as a top player at Chelsea. He also believes that the club has struck an amazing deal to secure the talented player for just £25m.
In their recent 4-3 comeback win against Tottenham, Sancho scored a brilliant goal, earning praise from Wright on his podcast. The former player also commended Sancho for proving his doubters wrong and feeling more welcomed at Chelsea than at his previous club.
Looking ahead to next summer when Sancho's transfer will be made permanent, Wright expressed his surprise at the low cost and deemed it a great bargain for Chelsea. He also sees potential for the team to continue their strong performance and possibly even compete for the title.
However, Wright notes that there are still areas where Chelsea could improve, specifically in the goalkeeper and center-back positions. He believes that adding experienced players in these positions would take the team to the next level.
As Chelsea prepares for their Europa League match against Astana and a Premier League game against Brentford, Wright encourages fans to keep an eye on the team's progress. With the right additions to the squad, he believes that Chelsea could surprise everyone and become serious contenders for the title.
