Well yes, if he breaks his leg tomorrow and doesn't play a game then you get him back.

12 months time. Strasbourg complete the signing of Jadon Sancho for £50 million.
Like the Atletico Felix deal where they'll keep him on the bench at the end of the season to avoid paying us
£15m smarter than previously suspected
If there’s a loan fee and they’re paying his wages it’s still the equivalent of 40m to us anyway.
No chance. We just sold you a virus.
Sir Jim threw out the fax, documents coming by carrier pigeon.
They cover his wages 100% I suppose. Any reports on loan fee? Would be the cherry on the icing on the cake...
£25m fee next year, plus £18m saving on wages this year. Perfect
To the Chelsea fans here, genuinely asking, what is your thought on this? Are you happy? Are you confused? Feel indifferent? Come and share with us.
So 25m + 8m loan fee, that right?
Honestly if we’ve got 33m after his shite Dortmund loan we should be delighted.

I'm not actually sure that he has legs.
Not arsed on the price - get him out.
Chelsea may be many things, smart is not one of them
Do they pay a loan fee and cover his wages? Or pay the loan fee and we cover his wages?
£25m is nonsense. At least we're saving a lot on wages.
Getting rid of the crazy wages is probably the main thing.
Not sure if serious
Agree mate basically he’s not arsed couldn’t give a feck, glad to see the back of the cnut.
Seems the most plausible seen so far yes.
Didn’t think there was a loan fee at all. Where’s that from
Such a strange player. Was unbelievable for Dortmund before we signed him, then seemed like he couldn’t be fecked to ever improve when the competition got stiffer and instead was just happy to be famous. Unless Maresca fully reinvents him in some weird system I don’t ever see him being worth a feck at this level.
Can’t even blame the club for buying him in the first place either, he was breaking records for Dortmund and schooling some of the best teams in the world. One of those times where I’d love a full uncensored behind the scenes opinion of how he actually is.

Seeing so many of your fans celebrating like he's some sort of saviour you've robbed from us
I remember reading a thread from 2021 after they won the Champions League in which someone wished that they wouldn’t sign the kid and hoped that we’d sign him instead. Fast forward to 2024 and we’re all thankful that he’s signing for them. How time flies. He’s been absolutely pants for us and I hope that the door doesn’t hit him on the way out.
Good riddance.
Have you watched him play for the last 3 years?
Whatttttttt!
I assume that since our asking price for Sancho was reportedly £40m at the start of the summer (per the Atheltic) - I can see this loan being £10m loan fee + £20m-£25m obligation to buy. Also, it sounds like all, if not most, of Sancho's wages are covered by Chelsea
Do we get a loan fee from Chelsea? That's the only way it could get close to 40m, but I doubt it.
£27 million savings if you add wages and amortisation cost.
Theoretically allows us to spend £100 million on a player
He might only cost half as much but this transfer is revenge for mysteriously malfunctioning Mason Mount.
He's already 26 yrs old.
He should be in his prime and itching to play yet here we are with one of Europe's former golden Boys.

You do know his current book value is £25m, right? Obligation + loan fee means we've made profit and saved on his astronomical wages.
not a great buy amount with wages off the books is huge
The same people complaining about the fee would be absolutely livid if he stayed.
Honestly there is a lot of numbers flying around from different sources. The first I saw said 8m loan fee.
I'd wait until it's announced and we will get a clearer picture.
I'm still hoping INEOS have neglected to fix the infamous fax machine and the paperwork misses the deadline.
I thought it was a worrying sign when he didn't exactly hit it off at Dortmund last season. I assume Sancho will just be a backup/squad player for Chelsea.Didn't felt it was needed!!
To be honest, Maresca tries to play the City way which Sancho should be familiar with considering he came through their academy. If he fails to shine even there then Sancho is really pointless. Ofcourse this is all assuming he gets rid of his laziness which is a long shot.
