Chelsea’s buy fee for Jadon Sancho depends on their final Premier League position.
That’s according to a recent report from the Telegraph’s James Ducker, who claims the winger’s Deadline Day switch to Stamford Bridge contains an unusual clause.
Sancho, 25, was allowed to make the switch to London after expressing his desire to leave Manchester United.
And, according to Ducker, Chelsea’s agreement with United includes a buy clause but the value of the clause will depend on where the Blues finish in the Premier League.
“Chelsea’s obligation to buy will be triggered if they finish in top 14 of PL this season. The purchase fee is between £20m and £25m depending on where Chelsea finish. The higher they finish the higher the fee,” he wrote on his X account.
The Blues finished sixth last season; two places above United, so while the Red Devils will hope for a good campaign from Chelsea, they will not want it to be at their expense… Literally.
Sancho is unlikely to feature against Crystal Palace on Sunday but could make his club debut away to Bournemouth after the upcoming international break.
