Playing Career


Club(s)
Played infant football with Watford FC, and at the age of 14, in March 2015, he made the move to the Manchester City FC Academy, at a cost of £66,000. Without making any first-team appearances, Sancho decided to move on, in the hope of gaining a first-team place. On 31 August 2017, he joined Bundesliga side BVB Borussia 08 Dortmund for an £8 million transfer fee. He made 82+22 Bundesliga appearances, and scored 38 goals. After a couple of bids were rejected in June 2021, Manchester United FC eventually agreed a fee of £73 million to sign Sancho, and he signed on 23 July. After falling out with his manager, Eric Ten Haag, and being frozen out of first team duties for the 2023-24 season, Sancho returned to BVB Borussia 08 Dortmund on loan on 11 January 2024, and made his return to the side two days later as a substitute. Had made eleven+three Bundesliga appearances, scoring two goals. Joined Chelsea FC on a season-long loan deal on 31 August 2024.
