    Sancho to Saudi Arabia is a get out of jail free card for both club and player. United should do a bundle deal with Casemiro and Varane

      How’s a Saudi move a jail-free card for him, besides it just being a massive pay cheque? He was touted as someone who would go on to be one of the best players of his generation. It’d be a massive shame if he just gives up and retires before even turning 25.

      I think its also way too early for Richarlison to consider it too - he’s only 26.

        Assuming it’s a short enough contract he could go out there and use the clean slate to prove commitment and (at least to that leagues level) skill. Still plenty of time for him to return to Europe.

        Such is the problem with golden handcuffs. There are probably a dozen clubs where Sancho would be a good fit and see him recapture his Dortmund form, none of them can afford the financial package it would take to find out.

          the problem for any of those clubs is that he’s only recapturing his form if they can get him to sort out his attitude and approach to his fitness, that’s a massive risk.

        We should be keeping Sancho until at least we know if Ten Hag is still managing us come August 2024. A January loan is all we should be targeting.
