Jadon Sancho will remain at Borussia Dortmund beyond the end of the season as “it would take a lot of money” to remain the player on loan from Manchester United, according to the club’s sporting director Sebastian Kehl.
Sancho returned to Dortmund on loan in January after struggling at Old Trafford following a big money transfer in 2021.
He was left out of the first after a public dispute with United manager Erik ten Hag.
“In the end, it’s going to take money, a lot of money. Definitely more than we have now,” Kehl told German broadcaster Sport1.
“They gave us more than 80 million euros for Jadon. Manchester United, of course, will have an interest in bringing him back this summer or promoting him in a deal that makes sense for them. We’ll have to decide if that makes sense for us as well. the next topic. “
Sancho has been a regular starter under coach Edin Terzic since returning to Dortmund, but the 23-year-old Englishman remains a screamer for the brilliant form he has shown, racking up 50 goals and 64 assists in 137 games in his first four games. -He will stay in Dortmund for a year.
Kehl also said that keeping Chelsea on loan for Ian Maatsen would also be a challenge and that the club could qualify for the Champions League.
Dutchman Maatsen also arrived on loan at Dortmund in January until the end of the season.
“Chelsea don’t have any financial problems and they don’t have any problems that would allow them to get a place in England,” Kehl said.
“Of course we will make an effort, we will also have to wait and see how things evolve. For us, qualifying for the Champions League is very, very important. “
Dortmund are fourth in the Bundesliga, one point ahead of fifth-placed RB Leipzig.
