Borussia Dortmund remain in contact with Manchester United as they work on a deal to bring Jadon Sancho back to the club for a third spell, per BILD. Talks ongoing.
Jadon Sancho could be heading back to Borussia Dortmund — again. According to BILD and Sky Sport Germany, the Bundesliga giants are still actively working on a deal to re-sign the Manchester United winger, with talks ongoing between all parties.
Sporting director Sebastian Kehl spoke to Sky on Tuesday and didn’t deny interest in Sancho, saying Dortmund are still pursuing multiple targets.
The potential return would mark Sancho’s third spell at BVB, following his original breakthrough move from Manchester City and last season’s loan from United.
Sebastian Kehl Leaves Door Open for Sancho Return
While Kehl didn’t name names, he made it clear that Dortmund are planning more signings before the Bundesliga kicks off in August.
“We have various targets. We will still do something. We have a few days left.” — Sebastian Kehl to Sky Sport DE
Sources close to the deal suggest that a second loan move is being explored, possibly with a future buy option or obligation. United are open to offers, but would prefer to offload Sancho permanently if the right bid arrives.
Why Dortmund Want Sancho Back — Again
Sancho rediscovered form during his six-month loan at Dortmund last season, scoring crucial goals and playing a key role in their run to the Champions League final.
With Jamie Bynoe-Gittens now gone to Chelsea and attacking depth slightly reduced, Dortmund are looking to strengthen the flanks. Sancho — already familiar with the club’s environment and style — represents a ready-made solution with minimal risk.
Karim Adeyemi remains at the club, but with rotation expected in wide areas, a player like Sancho could offer both competition and creativity in high-pressure matches.

Analyst Verdict
Jadon Sancho’s stock may have fallen in England, but in Germany, he remains a fan favourite. Dortmund would be getting a player who knows the environment, the expectations, and the system — making him a rare low-risk, high-upside signing.
For United, the clock is ticking. no clear path back into Amorim's plans, a solution must be found — either on loan again or through a permanent exit.
Key Takeaways
- Dortmund are still in talks with Manchester United over Jadon Sancho
- Sebastian Kehl confirmed they will “do something” before the deadline
- A loan with buy option is being explored, but permanent move not ruled out
- Sancho scored 4 goals in 21 games for BVB on loan last season
- United prefer a sale, but may settle for another short-term deal
What’s Next for Sancho and Dortmund?
Expect negotiations to intensify over the next 7–10 days as Dortmund look to finalise a deal before the Bundesliga begins. Manchester United are likely to wait for firm offers, but could be forced to accept a loan again if no permanent buyers come forward.
If agreed, Sancho could be reunited with BVB for the third time — and play a central role under Nico Kovac.
Should United give Sancho one more loan — or cut ties for good?
