Revealed: The hefty Jadon Sancho fee Chelsea must pay Man Utd if they don't sign out-of-sorts winger on permanent transfer as get-out clause emerges

<p>The English winger <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/jadon-sancho-joins-chelsea-man-utd-loan-deal-permanent-switch-next-summer/blt9b82c2bf008d4065" target="_blank">moved to Stamford Bridge from Old Trafford on a season-long loan</a> last summer, and as part of the agreement, Chelsea have an obligation to buy Sancho permanently for a £25 million ($32.3m) transfer fee. In the scenario that the Blues decided against signing the player permanently, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-ae/lists/chelsea-jadon-sancho-back-to-man-utd-loan-deal-financial-penalty-sir-jim-ratcliffe-comments/blt152a1865acf1306b" target="_blank">a clause in the deal</a> dictates that they would still have to pay a fixed amount of £5m to the Red Devils, according to <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6225211/2025/03/23/jadon-sancho-chelsea-man-united-transfer-permanent/" target="_blank"><em>The Athletic</em></a>.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Sancho got off to a flying start in his new environment as he contributed with an assist in each of his first three Premier League appearances for the west London side. However, since then his <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/premier-league-chelsea-jadon-sancho-man-utd-amid-14-game-goal-drought/blte187d227b648583c" target="_blank">form has taken a dip,</a> with Sancho scoring just two goals and laying on only one more in the subsequent 20 league matches. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/wake-up-jadon-sancho-flaky-chelsea-winger-exasperating-misfit-man-utd-premier-league-career-risk/blt7fe0a3e0202e78e5" target="_blank">That meagre return has led to serious questions being asked over whether Chelsea should bother to keep the winger</a>, and the emergence of the get-out clause will only fuel the scrutiny around his future.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>In January, Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca had backed the player as he had said: "For me, he’s doing very well. I am quite surprised with Jadon because I knew Jadon already (from seeing him at his previous clubs) and I know what I expected from him, but in terms of being consistent, he’s doing very well. Apart from a short part of the season (early November) when he had some problems. When he was out ill but for the rest he has been very good. I expected him to do well, but for all the players doing well for a long period is not easy, and he has been doing well for a long period already. He’s doing well, now he just needs to continue going in that way."</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Maresca's side, who are currently fourth in the Premier League, will be next seen in action on April 3 as they take on London rivals Tottenham. Sancho will hope to use that game as a springboard after scoring in the reverse fixture.</p>
