Man Utd loan fee confirmed as Sancho says: Dortmund feels like home

Manchester United will receive a guaranteed £3 million after loaning out Jadon Sancho.

The Red Devils have sent Sancho to German Bundesliga giants Borussia Dortmund.

Having signed him from Dortmund for a mega fee three years ago, United had no option but to let him leave on loan.

Sancho is out of favor with United boss Erik ten Hag and stated on his return to Dortmund: "When I came into the dressing room today, it felt like 'coming home'. I know the club inside and out, I've always been very close with the fans here, and I've never lost contact with those in charge.

"I can't wait to see my teammates again, go out on the pitch, play football with a smile on my face, prepare goals, score goals and help qualify for the Champions League."

Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl added: "Jadon is an absolute difference player and I'm looking forward to seeing him back in black and yellow soon. He knows this city, Signal Iduna Park, our fans and our club.

"Even though he hasn't played any competitive games in the past few months, we are sure that he will quickly settle back in with us, get into top form and use his qualities to help us achieve our goals for the season."
