In a total of 41 appearances in all competitions, Sancho scored 5 goals and had 4 assists, not too bad but not enough to meet the expectations of fans and the coaching staff. "The Blues" refused to fulfill the obligation to buy the player born in 2000, and at the same time returned him to MU with a 5 million pound contract breach fee.
Despite being dumped by Chelsea, Sancho still expressed his gratitude to the West London team: "Grateful for this experience. Thank you Chelsea for making me feel at home. Wishing the club all the best for the future. Truly grateful," Sancho wrote.

Sancho cannot stay at Chelsea. |
Although coach Enzo Maresca has publicly backed Sancho, he has also asked him and other wingers such as Noni Madueke and Pedro Neto to make more obvious contributions. Sancho has gradually been rotated in the squad towards the end of the season, and is no longer the first choice when young talent Tyrique George has also been promoted to the first team.
Sancho's future is a big question mark. Despite returning to Manchester United, new coach Ruben Amorim is said to have no plans to use him.
With wages of up to £300,000 a week, few European clubs are willing to pay for Sancho, while Saudi Arabian giants Al-Hilal, Al-Nassr and Al-Ittihad are emerging as potential destinations for the former Dortmund star.
The move to Chelsea was expected to revive Sancho's career, which had stalled after a long-running feud with Erik ten Hag at Old Trafford. However, the reality is that he has left only a faint mark.
Despite some memorable goals like against Tottenham or in the Conference League final against Real Betis, the 25-year-old's inconsistent form has left Chelsea's board hesitant to make a long-term move.
Meanwhile, Chelsea are urgently looking for a replacement for Sancho. The team has almost completed the signing of young striker Liam Delap from Ipswich, while pursuing potential attacking targets such as Nico Williams (Athletic Bilbao) and Xavi Simons (RB Leipzig) as they prepare for a challenging Champions League season under Maresca.
