Jadon Malik Sancho (born 25 March 2000) is an English professional footballer who plays as a winger for Premier League club Chelsea, on loan from Manchester United.

Previously a youth player with Watford and Manchester City, Sancho signed his first senior contract with Borussia Dortmund in 2017. Over four seasons with the club he made 137 appearances and won the 2019 DFL-Supercup and the 2020–21 DFB-Pokal, where he finished as the tournament's top scorer. Sancho returned to England to sign for Manchester United in 2021, winning an EFL Cup in his second season. He later returned to Dortmund on loan, reaching the 2024 UEFA Champions League final.

Sancho was part of the England youth team that won the 2017 FIFA U-17 World Cup and made his debut for the senior team in 2018, later appearing at UEFA Euro 2020.

Early life

[edit]

Jadon Malik Sancho[3] was born on 25 March 2000[4] in Camberwell, Greater London,[5] to a mother from Trinidad and Tobago and father of Jamaican and Guyanese descent.[6][7][8] He lived in the Guinness Trust Building estate in Kennington.[8][9][10][11] He became friends with fellow aspiring footballer Reiss Nelson, who lived nearby, after they played together in youth tournaments.[12] Growing up, he was a Chelsea fan and looked up to Didier Drogba and Frank Lampard.[13] Sancho's primary inspiration was Ronaldinho saying in 2018 to Sky Sports that "Ronaldinho was a big influence on me, watching him on YouTube, he used to do things that other people didn't really used to do."[14]

Club career

[edit]

Early career

[edit]
Sancho with Manchester City in 2017

Sancho joined Watford at the age of seven.[9] Due to issues with commuting across London to the club's academy, he moved into accommodation provided by Watford and began attending their partner school Harefield Academy as a boarder, aged 11.[8][9] At the age of 14 he told his Watford under-15s coach about his intention to play for England.[15]

At the age of 14, he moved to Manchester City in March 2015 for an initial fee of £66,000 under the Elite Player Performance Plan, potentially rising to £500,000 with add ons.[16][17] Sancho continued to impress in the City academy and was one of a trio of players that City chairman, Khaldoon Al Mubarak, said would be fast tracked into the senior set up in May 2017.[18][19] In July, Sancho was omitted from City's pre-season tour squad due to a dispute over assurances of playing time in a new contract.[20][21] It was subsequently reported that Sancho was attempting to engineer a move away from the club and City were alarmed at Sancho's attitude after he missed training following a pre-season tour.[22][23]

Borussia Dortmund

[edit]

2017–2019

[edit]

Sancho signed for German Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund on 31 August 2017 for a fee reported to be in the region of £8 million and was immediately included in the first-team squad.[24][25] He later stated that he felt confident in making the move abroad due to his previous experiences in relocating with Watford and Manchester City.[9][8] Sancho made his debut for the club against Eintracht Frankfurt on 21 October, coming on as a substitute with six minutes left of the match, becoming the first Englishman to play a Bundesliga match for Dortmund.[26] Sancho made his first league start for Dortmund on 14 January 2018, hitting the woodwork in a goalless draw with VfL Wolfsburg.[27] He scored his first professional goal on 21 April. It was the first goal in a 4–0 victory against Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga and he also assisted two other goals in the same match.[28]

Having signed a new contract keeping him at the club until 2022,[29] Sancho enjoyed a successful October 2018 by being named Bundesliga Player of the Month, registering three goals and an assist in just three league games.[30] Included among his goals for the month was a brace in a draw against Hertha BSC which saw him become the first player born in the 2000s to score twice in a single Bundesliga match and the youngest ever by a Dortmund player.[31] On 24 October, he also became the first player born in the 2000s to score in the UEFA Champions League for Dortmund against Atlético Madrid.[32]

During a 3–3 draw with TSG Hoffenheim on 9 February 2019, he became the youngest-ever player to score eight goals in a single Bundesliga season, breaking the record previously held by Christian Wück.[33] Later that month, upon scoring in a 3–2 win over Bayer Leverkusen, he broke Lukas Podolski's record to become the youngest player to score nine Bundesliga goals, aged 18 years and 336 days.[34] On 13 April, Sancho scored a brace in a 2–1 win over Mainz 05 and in doing so became the youngest-ever Dortmund player to score at least 10 goals in a single Bundesliga campaign.[35] Following an impressive league campaign in which he scored 12 goals and provided 14 assists, Sancho was named in the 2018–19 Bundesliga Team of the Season.[36]

2019–2021

[edit]

Success continued ahead of the 2019–20 season, with Sancho providing an assist and scoring in a 2–0 DFL-Supercup victory over Bayern Munich on 3 August 2019.[37] Later that month Sancho agreed a new contract with Dortmund.[38] In November, he was named runner-up in the Golden Boy award.[39] The next month, he was named runner-up in the Kopa Trophy award.[40] Sancho's goal in Dortmund's 3–3 draw with RB Leipzig on 17 December meant he had scored in seven consecutive games for the club (including in Champions League matches against Barcelona and Slavia Prague), bringing his tally up to 15 goals and 16 assists in the Bundesliga in the calendar year of 2019.[41] Sancho's three goals and three assists in five league matches during February 2020 saw him named Bundesliga Player of the Month for the second time in his career.[42]

On 31 May 2020, Sancho scored his first career hat-trick in a 6–1 away win over SC Paderborn. After scoring his first goal, he removed his shirt to reveal a shirt with the message "Justice for George Floyd", a black man who was murdered earlier that week in Minneapolis by a police officer, who knelt on Floyd's neck until he became unresponsive.[43]

On 13 May 2021, Sancho scored two goals in a 4–1 win over RB Leipzig in the 2021 DFB-Pokal final.[44][45]

Manchester United

[edit]

2021–2024

[edit]

On 1 July 2021, it was announced that Manchester United and Dortmund had reached an agreement for Sancho's transfer, subject to him signing a contract and passing a medical, both of which were expected to happen after UEFA Euro 2020.[46] The transfer was completed on 23 July, for a reported transfer fee of £73 million (€85 million), after Sancho signed a five-year contract with the option of a further year.[47] On 14 August, he made his debut as a substitute for Daniel James in a 5–1 home league win over rivals Leeds United.[48] On 23 November, he scored his first goal for the club, against Villarreal to secure a spot in the knockout stage of the Champions League.[49] Five days later, he scored his first Premier League goal against Chelsea after Jorginho miscontrolled a long clearance from Bruno Fernandes, allowing Sancho to take advantage of a two-on-one with Édouard Mendy.[50]

Sancho scored his first goal of the 2022–23 season in a 2–1 home victory over Liverpool on 22 August 2022.[51] On 1 February 2023, he played in the EFL Cup semi-final second leg match against Nottingham Forest, his first match since October 2022, as his team secured a place in the final.[52] A week later, he came off the bench to score the equalising goal in a 2–2 draw at home to Leeds United.[53]

Sancho was not included in United's squad for their game against Arsenal on 3 September 2023, with manager Erik ten Hag explaining that Sancho was not picked due to "his performances in training", stating that players "have to reach a level every day at Manchester United". In response, Sancho wrote on social media that "I will not allow people saying things that is completely untrue, I have conducted myself very well in training this week... I've been a scapegoat for a long time which isn't fair!"[54] United then announced on 14 September that Sancho would train "away from the first team group pending resolution of a squad discipline issue."[55]

2024: Return to Borussia Dortmund on loan

[edit]

On 11 January 2024, Sancho returned to former club Borussia Dortmund on loan for the rest of the 2023–24 season following his desire to leave Manchester United after his exclusion from the squad by Ten Hag for disciplinary reasons.[56][57] The Germans paid Manchester United a reported €4 million loan fee.[58] On 13 January, Sancho featured in his first match since rejoining Dortmund, coming on as a substitute in the 55th minute of the game against Darmstadt 98, which ended in a 3–0 win, with Sancho providing the assist for a goal from Marco Reus.[59] On 9 March, Sancho scored against Werder Bremen, drawing level with Tony Woodcock as the highest-scoring Englishman in the Bundesliga.[60][61] Four days later, he scored against PSV, as Dortmund secured their spot in the quarter-finals of the Champions League.[61] On 28 April, Sancho overtook Woodcock to become the highest-scoring Englishman in the Bundesliga, opening the scoring in a 4–1 defeat against RB Leipzig.[62] This record lasted just under five months, as he would be surpassed by Harry Kane.[63] On 1 May, he completed 12 dribbles against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League semi-final first leg, the most from a player at that round since Lionel Messi in 2008.[64] On 1 June, he started in the 2024 UEFA Champions League final with Borussia Dortmund at Wembley Stadium, playing 87 minutes as they lost 2–0 to Real Madrid.[65]

2024–25: Loan to Chelsea

[edit]

Following his loan to Dortmund, Sancho returned to training with Manchester United following a meeting with Ten Hag, in which they reportedly drew a line under their disagreement.[66] On 10 August 2024, he came on as a substitute in the 2024 FA Community Shield against Manchester City, later missing a penalty in the ensuing shoot-out as City triumphed.[67]

On 31 August 2024, Sancho signed for fellow Premier League club Chelsea on loan for the 2024–25 season, with an obligation to buy.[68][69] The obligation to buy, worth £20 million plus £5 million in performance-related add-ons, would reportedly be triggered if Chelsea finish within the top 14 at the end of the season.[70] Sancho made his debut for Chelsea as a half-time substitute for Pedro Neto in a Premier League match against Bournemouth on 14 September. After assisting Christopher Nkunku's winning goal in the 86th minute, Sancho was named Man of the Match.[71][72] Sancho would start in Chelsea's next two Premier League matches and registered assists in both games, assisting Nicolas Jackson away at West Ham United on 21 September and also assisting Cole Palmer's goal at home against Brighton & Hove Albion on 28 September, both matches ending in victories for Chelsea.[73][74][75] He scored his first goal for Chelsea with the fifth goal in their 5–1 league win over Southampton on 4 December.[76] He would then score a long-range strike against Tottenham Hotspur on 8 December, with this goal being the first of four to spark Chelsea's comeback victory.[77]

International career

[edit]

Youth career

[edit]

Sancho was capped by England's youth teams at under-16, under-17 and under-19 levels.[78]

In May 2017, Sancho was part of the England under-17 team that reached the final of the UEFA European Under-17 Championship, and was named player of the tournament for his performances.[79] In September 2017, Sancho was named in England's squad for the 2017 FIFA U-17 World Cup but the player's new German club resisted the call up.[80] The two parties eventually reached an agreement where he would be available for the group stages of the competition, but his participation was not guaranteed if England progressed to the knock out rounds.[81] On 8 October 2017, he scored twice in England U17's first match, against Chile.[82] On 16 October, during England's round of 16 tie against Japan, he was withdrawn from the competition by Borussia Dortmund.[83][9][8]

On 2 November 2017, Sancho was called up to the England U19 squad for the first time, joining them for 2018 UEFA European Under-19 Championship qualification matches against the Faroe Islands, Iceland and Group 8's host-nation team Bulgaria.[84] He made his first start at U19 level in the 6–0 victory against the Faroes, lasting seventy minutes before being substituted for Ben Brereton;[85] He replaced Brereton in the 66th minute in the win over Iceland, which secured progression to the elite round.[86] He scored the only goal of the match against Bulgaria to help England top their group.[87] Coming on as a substitute for Brereton, Sancho scored the last of the goals in England's 4–1 win over Hungary in the first match of the elite round on 21 March 2018.[88]

Senior career

[edit]

Following an impressive start to the 2018–19 season, Sancho was called up to the England senior squad for the first time on 4 October 2018 in preparation for UEFA Nations League fixtures against Croatia and Spain.[89] He made his debut as a 78th-minute substitute against Croatia on 12 October, in a 0–0 away draw.[90][8] On 22 March 2019, Sancho started his first competitive match for England in their 5–0 win over the Czech Republic at Wembley Stadium for a UEFA Euro 2020 qualifying match.[91] During the September internationals, Sancho scored his debut goals for the senior team, a brace, in a 5–3 home victory over Kosovo in a Euro 2020 qualifier on 10 September.[92]

On 11 July 2021, Sancho was brought on as a 120th-minute substitute for Kyle Walker during the UEFA Euro 2020 final against Italy. He took England's fourth penalty in the subsequent shoot-out, which was saved by Gianluigi Donnarumma. Following the 3–2 loss on penalties, Sancho along with Marcus Rashford and Bukayo Saka (who also missed penalties) were subjected to racially abusive messages on social media.[93]

Sancho was not included in England's squad for the 2022 FIFA World Cup or UEFA Euro 2024.[94]

Style of play

[edit]

Regarded as a quick, highly technical, and creative player, with excellent dribbling skills and ball control, Sancho is known for his trickery and use of feints in one-on-one situations and was described as one of the world's best young players during his Dortmund days.[95][96][97][98] Although he is known in particular for his ability to get past opponents and create chances for teammates, he is also capable of scoring goals himself.[98]

Sancho featured as a second striker or wide midfielder typically in a Borussia Dortmund 4–2–3–1 formation on either wing of attack.[99] Dortmund's "young player project" helped Sancho function in the focal point of attack alongside a core of talented young stars like Erling Haaland, Gio Reyna and Jude Bellingham.[100]
