5 potential destinations for Jadon Sancho

#3 Liverpool

Jurgen Klopp

Liverpool might not have been able to attract some of the best talents in Europe over the last decade but things are starting to change for the reigning Premier League champions. Thanks to their success in the UEFA Champions League and the Premier League, they rank among one of the best teams in Europe at the moment.

Jurgen Klopp has brought about a change in their style of play, and thanks to some shrewd transfer deals, he has built a winning squad at Anfield. Though there's no need as such for Sancho at the club, if they can afford him, The Reds would definitely like to admit him to their ranks.

Per AI Abacus, a website that specializes in using AI to help clubs make smarter transfer decisions, the English winger's skills fit in perfectly with Liverpool's style. As long as Mo Salah and Sadio Mane are in the squad, there's no place for Sancho at Liverpool.

If they were to sign him, it would make sense to buy him now before his valuation goes through the roof.

#2 Chelsea

Chelsea are struggling in the Premier League despite spending a lot this summer

If Jadon Sancho leaves Borussia Dortmund his most likely destination would be the Premier League. In the English toflight, Chelsea are one of the biggest spenders and Roman Abramovic is known for getting his checkbook out for the players he wants.

The Blues spent over €250 million last year on new signings but are worse off in the standings now than they had been a year ago. Sancho might fit in well at the London club as they are in process of building a youthful team and he could link up with his international teammate Mason Mount.

Sancho admitted in an interview in 2019 that he was a Chelsea fan growing up and though it might not play a huge role in helping him pick his future destination, that's enough to keep the fans excited in anticipation of his arrival.

#1 Manchester United

Manchester United

Premier League leaders Manchester United remain the favorites to land Sancho. They have been linked with the former Manchester City player for a long, long time now, and it is expected that after a failed bid in the summer, they will resume the negotiations with the German club this month.

Raphael Honigstein: "We just haven't seen or heard anything to suggest that they are indeed ready and willing to come back to that negotiation at the moment. I think everyone at Dortmund is under no illusions that the player wants to leave." #mulive [sky]

Though their transfer business has been shoddy recently, their January signing Bruno Fernandes has been one of the best players in the league this season. They too have started investing in young talents, and the likes of Rashford and Wan-Bissaska are starting and impressing regularly.

While all the wingers at the Old Trafford are in great form this term, adding a player like Sancho can help enhance the competition for places in the starting XI and lead to an overall uplift in the quality of the squad.

Sancho still has a lot to learn and the rich experience of the Bundesliga would certainly help him in developing into a potential Ballon d'Or winner in the future.
