For weeks now, there has been speculation that Borussia Dortmund are working to bring Jadon Sancho back to Westfalen. A more realistic option is a loan, and his annual salary grose is 20 million, which is way above anything the Germans could offer. But, in both situations, there were ’blown away’ by the Red Devils. Erik ten Hag has no problem letting Sancho go, but only for a fee, and after a season like he had, nobody is interested in playing the requested sum of around 50 million euros, yet alone giving him that wage. Dortmund operates on a different level than United and buys players for a small fee before earning big money from their sales, not the other way around. So, faced with a big transfer fee and enormous salary, they decided to find their inner strength.Borussia Dortmund is not planning to bring back Jadon Sancho. One reason: Julien Duranville. Internally, they are convinced that he can be better than the Englishman. 🗞 @BILD #BVB pic.twitter.com/1oB0aXirY4— BVB Newsblog (@bvbnewsblog) July 5, 2023 According to Bild, coach Edin Terzić and a group of experts from the club estimated that Borussia currently has a player in their ranks who can play at the same (or higher) level, is far cheaper (in terms of salary) and could bring even more income in the future than Sancho. It is Belgian teenager Julien Duranville (17). It sounds a bit unbelievable, but Bild has knowledge that they “scanned” the situation in Dortmund for a long time, made a detailed analysis and came to the conclusion that it is the right time for Duranville to get a chance. Maybe they wouldn’t come to that conclusion if United was ready to give them Sancho on loan, but nevertheless…Interestingly, Duranville played only 28 minutes of senior football in the last round against Mainz, and it was enough for Dortmund to conclude he is the future Sancho.Sancho and Dortmund Back together? There is a chance, but…Julien Duranville arrived in Dortmund in January this year from Anderlecht. He was paid 8,500,000 euros. He only had a break for a few days during the summer, right after the championship ended. Then he started individual work with a group of coaches from the young team, all to prepare as well as possible for the upcoming season. The results of that work are clearly visible, and the decision was made for Borussia to definitely give up the return of Jadon Sancho for the sake of promoting the super-talented Duranville.Bellingham’s successor is here – Borussia shop NmechaAs a reminder, Sancho left Dortmund for Manchester United two summers ago for as much as 85,000,000 euros. Its record market value was a whopping 130,000,000 in 2020. Now Transfermarkt values him at only 45,000,000, and there is no serious interest in him, although United would be happy to get rid of him, but only for that price. Otherwise, he will remain an (expensive) squad player.##NAJAVA_MECA_7356090##
