The reason behind Sancho's sudden resurgence has been revealed! There is no reversal at Manchester United, and a 100% free departure this summer is pending official announcement.

Over the past week, Sancho, loaned from Manchester United to Aston Villa, suddenly burst into form. He provided assists in consecutive matches—in the Europa League against Lille and in the Premier League against West Ham United—helping Villa reach the Europa League quarter-finals and narrowing the gap with the Red Devils to just one point in the Premier League standings.

In both matches, Sancho assisted captain McGinn. Against West Ham, it was a tactical free-kick situation; Sancho received the ball on the left flank, shifted it across to the other side, setting up the platform for McGinn to strike a left-footed long-range shot directly into the net.

After the match, former star Joe Hart praised Sancho unreservedly: "I admire Sancho's awareness. He noticed three teammates in front of the box with only one West Ham defender—a perfect opportunity. So he quietly took action; when the ball came to him, he delivered it beautifully to McGinn's feet, and the latter scored a brilliant goal. Sancho read the situation and was the most crucial starting point."

Statistics show that in this Premier League match, Sancho played 67 minutes with a pass success rate of 85%, created three chances, and succeeded in all his dribbles. He also contributed two tackles, often covering for right-back Cash in defensive retreats. With two assists in four days, Sancho seemed like a completely different player—considering he had only one assist in the previous six months.

It is reported that Sancho's sudden improvement in form is because he has found renewed motivation, hoping to attract his former club Borussia Dortmund to sign him for free in the summer window. To join the "Yellow-Black Army" for the third time, Sancho is even willing to reduce his salary to facilitate the deal.

According to "The Athletic," Sancho has already begun negotiations with Dortmund, hoping to rejoin the club. Villa have not yet expressed their stance; they also have an opportunity to compete for Sancho's signing. However, The Athletic states that Emery needs to wait for the outcome of Champions League qualification to know how much funds he can allocate.

But the 25-year-old Sancho naturally leans more toward Dortmund. This season, the team's manager Niko Kovac switched to a 3421 formation, deploying two attacking midfielders behind the striker, but the club now plans to reintroduce wingers, which could aid Sancho's return.

Borussia Dortmund has become the hottest contender to sign Sancho for free. Before the summer transfer window opens, changes have occurred at Dortmund: sporting director Sebastian Kehl has departed, and Ole Buck has agreed to fill the vacancy left by Kehl's departure. Therefore, Sancho hopes to gain recognition from Dortmund's new leadership through his outstanding performances.

The British "Times" reports that Kovac is said to have agreed to sign Sancho. However, the prerequisite for this deal is that Sancho must significantly reduce his salary, as the Germans cannot afford his current weekly wage of £250,000 at Manchester United.

Although Sancho's performance has improved, there will be no reversal in his Manchester United career. Transfer expert Graeme Bailey of "TEAMtalk" confirms that the Red Devils still do not consider activating the one-year priority renewal clause in Sancho's contract, even though theoretically that could allow them to seek a transfer fee by selling him.

But Sir Jim Ratcliffe's management team knows well that if renewed, it is more likely that Sancho would stay at United for another year, meaning the club would have to pay £12 million in wages! Therefore, United had already decided back in February not to use the renewal clause, allowing Sancho to leave as a free agent.

A source confirmed to TEAMtalk: "Jadon (Sancho)'s agent team is seriously considering joining Borussia Dortmund, where he achieved great success, and the club is eager for him to return."

Florian Plettenberg of Sky Sport Germany also stated: "It is 100% confirmed that Sancho will leave Manchester United after the season ends. Borussia Dortmund is very interested and negotiations have already taken place. Club chairman Watzke is the main driver of this idea; he highly appreciates the 25-year-old player and wants to bring him back. Sancho has been informed that Watzke is pushing for this transfer. No final decision has been made yet; there are still many issues to investigate."
