Jadon Sancho has indicated that he will only go back to Manchester United on one condition as the battle over his future intensifies.
Sancho has made it clear that his ideal solution would be to remain with Borussia Dortmund, where he has spent the second half of the season on loan, reaching the Champions League final with the Bundesliga club.
That possibility, though, looks increasingly distant.

“The situation is pretty clear, he still has a contract at Man United, we have no buy option meaning we need to discuss and negotiate. I don’t know if that will work,” sporting director Sebastian Kehl admitted prior to the Champions League final with a pessimistic tone.
Sancho is, however, prepared to return to Manchester United – but only on the condition that manager Erik ten Hag is no longer at the club., the Daily Mirror reports.
While that looked inevitable barely a week ago, when reports were raging that Ten Hag was poised to be sacked no matter the outcome of the FA Cup final, the silence coming from Old Trafford over the Dutchman’s future has put that eventuality into some doubt.

Dortmund contract offer in the pipeline
If Sancho’s future remains unclear, it appears that Dortmund head coach Edin Terzic is set to remain at the club in a stunning U-turn in his fortunes based off the club’s Champions League run.
BVB impressed in Saturday’s final against Real Madrid, despite going down to a 2-0 defeat, and now Fabrizio Romano says that the boss, who was threatened with the sack due to the club’s poor league position, is set to be offered a new deal.
“Borussia Dortmund board, prepared for new meeting with Edin Terzic to extend his contract after excellent season in Champions League,” Romano reported on X.
“Terzic has been able to change the feelings about his work in the second part of the season and he will be offered a new deal.”
