Chelsea will have to pay Manchester United £5million if they elect to opt out of their obligation to make Jadon Sancho’s signing a permanent one.
Sancho sealed a season-long loan move to Chelsea last summer in a transfer which included a £25m obligation.
The forward got off to a good start at Stamford Bridge, providing three assists in as many Premier League games. However, his form has since declined, with his recent performances especially proving to be a source of great frustration for Chelsea fans.
Apart from a short spell of two goals in two games in December, Sancho has managed just one more goal since and hasn’t recorded a league goal or assist since early January.
In the 28 appearances he has made for Chelsea across all competitions, Sancho has managed a mere two goals and six assists.
Over the past few weeks, he has fallen behind the likes Cole Palmer, Pedro Neto and Noni Madueke in the pecking order under Enzo Maresca.
This has led to speculation that Chelsea could back out of their obligation to sign Sancho permanently.
It was stated that should the Blues pursue this course of action, they would need to pay United millions of pounds.
Now, Ornstein has revealed that it will cost Chelsea £5m.
