Manchester United and Chelsea are at varying phases in a heavy rebuilding process. The Red Devils lie in 10th place in the league, still lacking a clear and discernible idea on how to play football. Chelsea have shown more promising signs under Frank Lampard, considering the transfer ban. It has allowed him to play the highly-rated prospects from the academy without the added pressure because of the ban. Expectations are different for a big-money signing. Immediate impact from Sancho would be necessary from both sets of fans if their club spends upwards of €100 million to bring him in.

Liverpool are a well-oiled machine who have won the Champions League and are on course to end their Premier League drought. Sancho wouldn't even be expected to be an immediate start, let alone be tasked with transforming an ailing side. He would be allowed time to settle into the side and earn playing time gradually. The same approach was followed for Fabinho and he's a certainty for the playing XI when fit.

Some would argue that he needs playing time and continuously playing second fiddle to the existing front three would be detrimental to his development. While that is true in part, the sheer amount of games that Liverpool are playing this season would give him ample opportunities to impress and stake a claim for regular football. Additionally, Salah and Mane have been linked with transfers away from Merseyside more than once now. Should any transfer materialise, Sancho would slot in seamlessly and become a key player in no time.
