    Chelsea told Jadon Sancho is 'signing of the summer' and 'foolish' Manchester United will regret deal

    4 hours ago

    Chelsea have been told that they secured the "signing of the window" in Jadon Sancho , who could turn into another Cole Palmer.

    The Blues wrapped up a loan-to-buy deal for Sancho on deadline day, which will see the player join in a permanent deal worth £25million next summer.

    Sancho was keen to leave Manchester United , three years after a £73m move from Borussia Dortmund, and ex-England goalkeeper David James says the forward has the ability to make his former club look "very foolish."

    "My signing of the window has to be Chelsea’s capture of Jadon Sancho," James told safestcasinosites.co.uk . "He had a good debut against Bournemouth - looked really lively, and there’s no doubt that there is a player in there.

    "He’s shown what he’s all about at his two spells with Dortmund. There was something about him at Manchester United which, for whatever reason, obviously didn't work. That can happen with players, particularly young ones, sometimes moves just don’t work out.

    "His second spell at Dortmund re-energised him. It gave him the belief that he can operate at the highest level after his confidence was knocked at Manchester United.

    "He’s going to get lots of opportunities to showcase his talent at Chelsea this season. I think it’s a great signing and a new environment could be exactly what he needs to start demonstrating that he is one of the best attacking players in the Premier League.

    "In many ways, it’s similar to Cole Palmer. Chelsea are going to give him a platform to express himself. If he can follow in Palmer’s footsteps, then it’s a fantastic piece of business and one that could leave Manchester United looking pretty foolish indeed, especially if they keep on struggling."
