So much for that. Earlier in the week, plenty of eyebrows were raised when news dropped that Fenerbahce and Jose Mourinho were interested in bringing Jadon Sancho to Turkey. Wait a minute, seriously?
Yup, reports emerged stating that the club was in contact with Manchester United about potentially getting something done. That's not going to happen, though. According to the one and only Fabrizio Romano, the Turkish side is not interested at this time in Sancho.
Instead, it looks like the club is shifting its focus to Jhon Duran instead. It goes without saying, but this is a major bummer for United, as everyone is waiting to see who will come in and take him off the books - the door is fully shut for Sancho to return to Old Trafford next season.
🚨❌ Fenerbahçe are not in active talks to sign Jadon Sancho as negotiations are not concrete at this stage.

Fenerbahce is no longer showing serious interest in signing Man United fallout Jadon Sancho
Now what for MUFC? Sancho had a falling out with Erik Ten Hag a little while back, which first led to Sancho being loaned out to Dortmund. Then last season, more drama arrived, with Sancho moving from Manchester to London to play for Chelsea FC.
It seemed like things were going well with Sancho and the Blues and the expectation was that Chelsea was going to buy the winger on a permanent deal. Instead, however, CFC made the decision to not do that, which still has plenty of people talking.
Because of this, United has been forced to go to Plan B in terms of trying to find a new home for Sancho. Man United is working overtime to sell him, with the hope being that those funds can be used to bring in a new striker. Potentially Viktor Gyokeres?
No one knows how things are going to go down here, but frustration continues to mount for the fanbase with things being so unclear for Sancho. What we do know is that he won't be playing in front of the Stretford End this upcoming season. However, your guess is as good as ours for where he'll be spending next campaign.
