Roma and Lazio Eye Sancho as Chelsea Loan Nears Possible Early Conclusion
Reports suggest that Roma and Lazio are monitoring Jadon Sancho’s situation, as the winger’s loan spell at Chelsea may come to a premature end. The 25-year-old English player, who joined Chelsea on loan from Manchester United last summer, has had a mixed season at Stamford Bridge.
Sancho’s performance for Chelsea has been inconsistent, with two goals and seven assists in 29 appearances across all competitions. Recent reports indicate that Chelsea might have to pay £5 million to terminate the loan and send Sancho back to Manchester United before the season’s end.
Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca is reportedly unconvinced by Sancho’s contributions, with the player starting only 16 Premier League matches this season and scoring twice. This situation has caught the attention of several clubs, including Roma and Lazio in Serie A.
While German clubs Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen have already expressed interest in a potential summer deal, the two Rome-based clubs are also closely monitoring developments. Should Sancho become available in the coming months, both Roma and Lazio are said to be prepared to make a move for the talented winger.
This isn’t the first time Sancho has been linked with a move to Italian football. Last summer, Juventus reportedly showed interest in acquiring his services. As the summer transfer window approaches, Sancho’s future remains uncertain, with a potential return to Manchester United or a new adventure in Serie A on the horizon.
