Chelsea are in talks with Jadon Sancho over a new deal that would see them trigger an obligation to buy from Manchester United for £25million, talkSPORT understands.

The Blues want Sancho to stay and to take a pay cut to fit into their incentive-driven structure.

Should terms not be agreed, Chelsea will pay a £5m penalty fee to send Sancho back to United. 

News of Chelsea’s Sancho stance comes a day after he scored in the Blues’ 4-1 thrashing of Real Betis in the Conference League final.

The winger fired in Chelsea’s third when he cut in from the left and curled a right-footed attempt past Betis goalkeeper Adrian.

It was Sancho’s fifth goal of the 2024/25 campaign across all competitions as he finished with 15 total goal contributions.

Following Chelsea’s win in Poland, which ensured they became the first club to win every major European trophy, Maresca hinted the winger’s future may lie with the Blues.

“We are going to sit with the club and decide what happens for next year,” Maresca said.

“If we finish fourth it is also because of Jadon, if we win tonight it is also because of Jadon. 

“It is normal in a season to go a little bit up and down.”

Prior to the final, Maresca confirmed the club would wait until the end of the campaign before they made any final decision on Sancho.

“I said that when in the last weeks you asked me about different players, I always said the same,” Maresca said.

“And the reason why is because it’s the truth.

“It’s not the moment, we have the final. Then in 24 hours, 48 hours, we’re going to start to talk about the future. B

“But at this moment, there is not any thought or any decision made on Jadon or any different players.”
