This post sums up my feelings.
Best for all parties is to mutually terminate his contract. He won't make it in the Premier League and him overstaying at United while cashing in £300k+ won't go well with United fans.
This.Please no. Never want to see him in a United shirt again.
He doesnt go. Same story with lots of our players on silly contracts, they choose to stay as cant get as good elsewhereWhat happens to his contract if,say, we get an offer from Saudi but he doesn’t want to go there?
We won’t get an offer from Saudi for him anyway.What happens to his contract if,say, we get an offer from Saudi but he doesn’t want to go there?

I genuinely hope we never see him againHe genuinely should not get the opportunity to play for this club again.
He doesn’t want to return to United (while Ten Hag is here) - that sounds like a contract violation. We get an offer, which presents an option to all parties, isn’t there some way we can nullify the contract like he’s being fired ? He won’t play for United, great, and Dortmund won’t pony up, we should be able to sell his contract regardless of whether he wants it or not. Players get sold and traded all the time against their wishes in other sports.We won’t get an offer from Saudi for him anyway.
He doesn't want to return to United because he's not comfortable with the manager but he won't actually refuse to come back and train with the team (probably our youth team as ETH will not allow him anywhere near first team) when the time comes. Basically no chance we would be able to cancel his contract. His preference is to be elsewhere but he's not dumb enough to agree to cancel his contract, knowing well that no club will match his earnings.He doesn’t want to return to United (while Ten Hag is here) - that sounds like a contract violation.

Seems players have all the power.
I don't think Saudis are going to be very active this Summer. Some of the players that moved have left already, some are rumored to be unhappy and looking at their options, the league doesn't really seem to have a very clear path towards becoming popular and seems to have lost some traction.They already have last summer. Now he's a big name Champions League finalist he'll be even more attractive to them![]()
I could see more than 50% chance that another loan will happen if ETH gets to stay around. If INEOS plays hard ball with Dortmund about the price and noone else is interested, the simple solution is another loan until ETH contract run out in a year.No more loans please. Just sale. Maybe the buying club can compensate him with some payments upfront to sweeten the deal. We really don't want to stand in his way of football progress...
If he’d been 32 years and a bit tired of football I’d get it. Wasting a whole other year is not going to even benefit his pocket in a five year perspective, because he’s not getting a bumper sign on fee if he’s been out of football for twelve months on top of two seasons of scarce football and ‘issues’. Neither is it in United’s interest to have him sulking around Carrington for a year sending longing looks towards his old teammates in the parking lot. Nobody’s going to like that.He doesn't want to return to United because he's not comfortable with the manager but he won't actually refuse to come back and train with the team (probably our youth team as ETH will not allow him anywhere near first team) when the time comes.

I’d expect another loan. I think he still clings to a hope that ETH will eventually be gone in a few years time and he could have a shot at playing here then (though I think he only has two years on his contract as I seem to remember him only signing a 5-year deal at the beginning and he’s been with us for 3 already).If he’d been 32 years and a bit tired of football I’d get it.

It’ll be a give-a-way sale, with him dropping his fees a fair bit too, or another loan. Most likely a loan, I’m guessing.
I wanted him a lot the summer before we got him and was very pleased when we did. But I'll absolutely eat the humble pie of being completely wrong about him. Has some talent for sure but his character and attitude are shocking. The whole nonsense from Dortmund on SM and then things like Sancho reckons he will come back if ETH leaves...feck off mate. We did everything possible to try and help him out and he is just an arrogant tw@t. Would love to see the back of him permanently ASAP.
I was exactly in the same boat as you, wanted him really badly and thought it is a signing we cannot miss out on. Since then, we have seen why we should not judge players on a few games and stats.
ETH tried to help him out the season before when he had off field issues and he repaid him back by stabbing him in the back.
Sancho also does not have the mentality to be a top player, every time he has 1 / 2 good performances, his instagram is full of retweets of fans, when he has a bad game or a few bad games and gets criticised, he has to leave social media.
We can leave his off field issues out and talk about his on field issues, he doesn't have the pace to beat a player, he has no aggression or intent on and off the ball. If we can get £20/30m for him, it would be ideal.
Joins Smicer, Bertrand, Winks, Karius as worst players who have started a UCL final.So he starts in a Champions League final today. Not bad for an outcast![]()

YT football channels have a lot to answer for.Can we all finally stop pretending Sancho is having an amazing resurgence at Dortmund?
I mean he is doing better than he was at United but that isn't very hard considering he spent most of the last year either throwing a strop or taking time off because the stress of the game was just too much.
If we can get £50m for him this summer, take it and run.
