Jadon Sancho’s time at Manchester United was anything but smooth, as he has now moved to Chelsea.
The 24-year-old winger signed on a loan move to the Blues with the agreement that they will be forced to sign him next summer for a fee of £20-25 million.
Unfortunately, Sancho lost his place in the United first team under the guidance of Erik ten Hag and could not replicate his successful Borussia Dortmund stint.
Michael Dawson has cast doubt on Sancho and mentioned that he might not have a long-term future at Chelsea.
Michael Dawson Questions Sancho’s Chelsea Future
Nevertheless, ex-Premier League player Michael Dawson has questioned whether Chelsea is the right club for Sancho.
Essentially, Dawson does not really trust that the England international will be assured of game time at Stamford Bridge because the club has ample strength in the winger role.
‘Jadon Sancho is a good player; let’s not forget that. He was a superstar at Borussia Dortmund; he went to United, and it didn’t work out for him.
‘But to go to Chelsea, why will it be any different there? Where’s he going to play? I honestly thought he needed to go somewhere where he was going to play.
As it stands, there are other talented players who have the capacity to play in the wide areas of the team; hence, Sancho may not be able to boast enough playing time on the field.
Meanwhile, Sportsbuddy previously analysed how Jadon Sancho can be a huge weapon to Enzo Maresca’s team.
Chelsea’s Crowded Attack Poses a Challenge
Speaking to Sky Sports, Dawson pointed out that the Blues have enough talented wingers in their team at the moment and questioned where Sancho might find a place at Stamford Bridge.
‘Chelsea is an absolutely crazy place right now. You’re bringing in Sancho for Raheem Sterling. It blows my mind.’
He pointed out that Sancho, who previously played for Dortmund, needs games to return to form, a situation Dawson believes will not happen with Chelsea.
It gets even worse at Chelsea, where Sancho joins the team as a replacement for Raheem Sterling, which still puzzles Dawson given the current perspective.
