Chelsea have been praised for their cheap signing of Jadon Sancho from Manchester United, with Ian Wright impressed with the player’s progress this season.
Sancho joins Chelsea from Manchester United In the summer, this was technically an initial loan move but there was an obligation to make the loan permanent for £25m.
When discussing the deal, Wright praised Chelsea’s smart move in the transfer market and Sancho reflected on his best form since leaving Old Trafford for Stamford Bridge.
The 24-year-old looked like a young talent at Borussia Dortmund a few years ago, but for some reason he never joined Manchester United.
Chelsea are about to sign an incredible prodigy!
This led to Sancho returning to Dortmund on loan for the second half of last season, where he also impressed.
Now Wright is happy to see Sancho makes another appearance for Chelseathis looks like it could be another major transfer mistake for the Red Devils.
Ian Wright says Jadon Sancho transfer looks like a good deal for Chelsea
talking about his Wrighty House PodcastThe Arsenal legend paid special tribute to Sancho, saying: “I need to give flowers to Jadon Sancho. He’s very good [against Tottenham]he’s fine.
“He later talked about proving people wrong and feeling welcome, so he obviously might not have felt that way elsewhere, at Manchester United.
“Why else would he say that? He doesn’t feel like he’s in the arms of a football club that recognizes his ability and gives him a platform to express himself.
“Even last season he went to Dortmund and he proved people wrong.
“I’m delighted that he has shown since leaving Manchester United that in the right environment he is a top player, a top player.”
CFC fans will be happy to see Sancho shine again as it looks like he can still have a great career at the highest level.
However, Manchester United fans must be wondering why their club keeps signing so many talented players but completely fails to get the best out of them.
