Jadon Sancho: Manchester United Tear Into New Chelsea Player After Loan Move

  • Manchester United fans have sharply criticised Jadon Sancho for his farewell message after joining Chelsea
  • Sancho moved to London after difficult relations with Erik ten Hag made his long-term stay at United untenable
  • There was a stark contrast between his exit message to United fans and the one he posted after a six-month loan at Dortmund

Jadon Sancho finally completed his move to Chelsea, with the club announcing him officially on Saturday evening.

Like most transfer news these days, the England international's switch to London on the final day of the transfer period was one of the worst-kept secrets.

Sancho's message to Manchester United

Sancho took to his social media to bid goodbye to the Red Devils faithful and introduce himself to his new fanbase.

"Thank you to all the fans, staff and teammates at Manchester United. Wishing everyone all the best in the future."

A section of Manchester United fans took exception with this message, calling out the winger for 'never having the club at heart.'

Manchester United fans criticise Sancho

The fans argued that the 24-year-old wasted no time in pulling down every Manchester United-related picture from his Instagram but left the ones from his Borussia Dortmund days. Similarly, his message to Dortmund fans after a six-month loan in Germany was way longer and more sentimental than what he posted after leaving United.

@HotBoySuave said,

"Prior to this post, If they check his page, they’ll think he went to Chelsea from Dortmund."

When will Sancho make his Chelsea debut?
