Sancho refuses to transfer to Villa forever! Manchester United confirms plans for renewal, but no teammates bid farewell

Manchester United rented Sancho to Aston Villa of the Premier League on the deadline of the summer window on September 1. It is reported that Villa bears 80% of Sancho's salary, and the Red Devils are responsible for the other 20%. However, if its performance meets certain standards, Manchester United will receive a loan fee and bonus of £5 million, which is equivalent to fully covering the 25-year-old England winger's £250,000 weekly salary.

British media disclosed that there is no buyout clause in Villa's lease contract. Manchester United had expected the other party to assume a permanent transfer obligation, but Villa refused, and Manchester United's plan was that if Sancho performed well, the club would activate the one-year priority renewal clause in its contract. Of course, most people are pessimistic about that unlikely to happen.

Manchester United originally hoped to exchange Sancho with Villa for Argentina goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez, but Sancho refused to transfer permanently, which forced the plan to be abandoned. The reason why Sancho is unwilling to transfer permanently is simple: the transfer requires a salary cut, and he can still get all his salary in the next year or even two years!

Despite this, former Manchester United chief scout Mike Brown revealed that club executives were still delighted that Sancho was able to leave because they had been worried that he would stay. "Football Insider" said that Manchester United wanted to clean up the "Five Rats" that Amorin asked to send away, which greatly reduced their fee requirements. Not only Sancho, but also Rashford, Garnacho, and even Hoylund, who is not on this list.

"Manchester United is very happy with Sancho's deal," Brown explained, "because they were eager to get rid of him, desperate to eliminate his salary from the bill, but it seems that no one will come to take him away. We have negotiated with different clubs and signed different loan agreements, but it is worrying that he is more likely to stay." Although Manchester United smashed Villa's hopes of entering the Champions League in the last round last season, the latter did not seem to have a grudge. Brownie added: "Vera helped solve Sancho's problem, they took a large part of the salary. I think the deal is more beneficial to Manchester United than Villa, especially given the current financial situation of the two clubs. At the same time, Manchester United also successfully sold Anthony for nearly £22 million, so from this perspective, it was a good day for Manchester United."

Sancho will wear the same No. 19 jersey as when Villa rented Chelsea last season, and explaining why he chose Villa, the England winger said: "First of all, when I talked to the head coach (Emery) he gave me confidence and he showed me the plans for this year, which really inspired me. Me. It was indeed he who convinced me that I couldn't wait to play under him. As long as the head coach needs me, I would be happy to play. Of course, I have personal goals, but my first priority is to help the team."

The controversial player also expressed his determination to the new club: "We must achieve great achievements, we must move towards this goal, and hopefully I can help the team achieve these goals. The team is first, and the team achieves more special than personal achievements. I think all players have personal goals, but the team is always first."

has been rented to Rashford in Barcelona and also supports Sancho to try it in Villa Park. Sancho said: "I talked to him when he came here last season, and I knew he really enjoyed life here. He said a lot of good things about the club, such as it was like a big family, the atmosphere was very friendly, and there were great players and staff. I felt this when I came here."

Interestingly, Sancho's transfer did not seem to attract the attention of Manchester United players, and no teammate commented on Sancho's social media transfer posts. Captain Bruno Fernandez and others did not respond, which shows that the players may no longer pay attention to this teammate.
