Whether Chelsea sign Jadon Sancho permanently or not, they have to pay Manchester United, according to a recent report.
According to a report, Chelsea must pay a penalty clause to Manchester United if they decide not to sign Jadon Sancho permanently in the summer transfer window.
The 24-year-old joined the Blues on a season-long loan with an obligation to buy last summer from the Red Devils. However, Chelsea can avoid the mandatory purchase clause, but for a fee.
