In the summer of 2024, striker Jadon Sancho joined Chelsea on a loan deal. Along with that, The Blues also agreed a clause to buy Man United players for about 25 million pounds at the end of the season.
Sancho has had a pretty good start at Chelsea, especially when he scored twice in two consecutive games in December. However, from that time until now, the English player has been completely quiet. In Chelsea's 4-0 win over Southampton, Sancho was also substituted early in the second half.
Former Chelsea player William Gallas believes Sancho is not suitable for the Premier League, according to Metro: "Jadon Sancho knows what he needs to do. Sometimes the players forget that at the end of the season, people will see the data and evaluate you. He has a lot of potential and is really qualified, that's why people are disappointed with his recent performance.
To be honest, I don't know if he's capable of playing consistently in the Premier League. That is very difficult. You have to push yourself to the limit and not just once, you need to maintain it throughout the season. Some players won't be able to do that.
Jadon Sancho was once very famous for his Dortmund shirt. In the 2019-2020 season, this winger scored 17 goals and 16 assists after 32 matches in the Bundesliga. However, since moving to the Premier League, Sancho has only scored 11 goals despite playing 79 matches for Man United and Chelsea.
"Fans are disappointed because they have hoped in Sancho. They want to see his version at Borussia Dortmund. But I think he will never repeat his previous achievements, Gallas commented.
