Jadon Sancho told to leave Premier League in January transfer from Man Utd to join club ‘where his mind is settled’
MANCHESTER UNITED outcast Jadon Sancho has been urged to quit the Premier League until his “mind is settled”.
Ex-Red Devils striker Louis Saha believes the England winger should join an overseas club in January to resolve his “horrible situation”.
And although Saha reckons Sancho is good enough for “any Prem side,” he reckons the 23-year-old should first “find the right mentality” abroad.
The Frenchman even claims the Londoner patching up his relationship with boss Erik ten Hag and earning a surprise recall would be of no help.
The ex-Fulham star, 45, told Paddy Power: “Jadon Sancho can play in any side in the Premier League – he’s got the quality for that.
“He needs somewhere where he’ll find the right mentality. Quality-wise he’s a terrific player but his mind is against him.
“His fitness wasn’t right when he arrived at Manchester United, and he had to work really hard to get fit and that didn’t help him.”
Saha added: “It would be nice to see him fulfil his potential in the Premier League because it’s the best league in the world.
“Moving to Saudi Arabia would be a bit extreme, but I can see him playing in Spain or another top league where he can go and enjoy his football before coming back to England when his mind is settled.
“That’s the most likely scenario I can see happening.”

Juventus are the current favourites to sign Sancho.
A loan switch to the Italian giants appears possible, ahead of a mooted £60million permanent deal in the summer.
Sancho has reportedly baulked at switching to Saudi Arabia or rejoining Borussia Dortmund.
