Premier League clubs eye Jadon Sancho months after Man United exit
Jadon Sancho has attracted interest from more than one Premier League club as a free agent, sources have told Football Insider.
The 26-year-old left Man United upon the expiry of his contract back in June and has yet to find a new club, despite fielding multiple offers from across world football.
Clubs as far flung as Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Brazil are believed to be keen on the winger, but a return to the Premier League is still firmly on the cards as things stand.
As I revealed on the latest edition of Football Insider's Transfer Insider podcast, there are a number of Premier League clubs who would be keen to sign Sancho as a free agent.
Despite what proved to be a turbulent spell in English football with Man United, Chelsea and Aston Villa, he remains a talented player with many admirers at the top level.
However, there are concerns about the player's attitude and wage demands, which could deter any interested clubs from making a move at this stage of the season.
When will Jadon Sancho join his next club?
Football Insider revealed on 11 September that Sancho is not expected to join a new club immediately, despite reports that he could be closing in on his next destination.
The 26-year-old has now been a free agent for almost three months, but his next move is not believed to be in the works as he continues to weigh up his options.
A return to the Premier League could now be on the cards, with clubs assessing his situation as they eye attacking reinforcements weeks after the window closed.
Speaking on the Transfer Insider podcast, I explained: "Some Premier League clubs have been keeping tabs on Jadon Sancho's situation.
"If thre are any Premier League clubs who feel they still need to add to their attacking options after the transfer window closed, Sancho would fit the bill.
"He's a free agent and he has extensive Premier League experience as well after the last couple of seasons which he spent on loan at Chelsea and Aston Villa.
"He made 39 appearances for Villa last season, so Sancho is one of the most highly sought after free agents on the market for any Premier League club looking to strengthen."
Which other clubs are interested in signing Sancho?
Premier League clubs are not the only ones showing an interest in Sancho, with clubs across world football having been placed on alert by his availability as a free agent.
Amid links with clubs in Brazil, the UAE, Turkey and England, the winger will continue to weigh up his options until the right offer arrives.
Former Man United chief scout Mick Brown told Football Insider that Sancho has two offers on the table: a move to Saudi Arabia or a return to Borussia Dortmund.
The Bundesliga outfit remain strong admirers of Sancho afetr his previous success there, and have considered offer him the chance to return for a third spell.
However, reports have since claimed that Dortmund have dropped out of the race to sign Sancho over his wage demands, leaving a move to the Middle East as his most likely option.
