Overview
- Club figures are reported to have decided against triggering Sancho’s 12‑month option as INEOS prioritises clearing his salary from the books this summer.
- Mail-cited breakdowns put United’s combined outlay on Sancho at about £138m since his 2021 arrival for a reported £73m fee and a £250,000‑a‑week wage.
- Sancho is on loan at Aston Villa, who are paying roughly 80% of his salary plus a loan fee, and he has scored once this season in the Europa League.
- Across 83 appearances for United, he has recorded 12 goals and six assists, with more matches now played for other clubs than for the Old Trafford side.
