Jadon Sancho: Borussia Dortmund winger shines against PSG in Champions League
Former Scotland striker Ally McCoist told TNT Sports: “Sancho looks like a different player entirely. His body language is like the player Man Utd bought.
“You can tell a lot from body language and he wants to take people on and play. He certainly looks rejuvenated.
“It is confidence, he has his mojo back. He is in an environment where he is liked and he looks like a different footballer.”
Sancho finished the match with 12 successful dribbles, the most completed by a player in a Champions League match this season.
It was also the most by a player in a Champions League semi-final since Lionel Messi in April 2008 against Man Utd (16) and the most on record in the competition by an Englishman.
With performances like this, it is no wonder Dortmund want Sancho to remain next season.
But, for the loan to be repeated next season, or turned into a permanent transfer, it would require significant compromise on all sides.
Dortmund can’t match the salary Sancho gets at United. But United, under severe pressure to comply with the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability rules, cannot just hand over an asset of that size.
It is clear there is no future for Sancho at Old Trafford if Ten Hag remains as manager. But he may not, which opens up the possibility of a return to United even if the feeling persists he will be playing elsewhere next season.
West Ham are set to appoint Julen Lopetegui as their new manager later this week.
The former Spain and Real Madrid coach was identified as the Hammers’ first choice to replace outgoing boss David Moyes and, earlier this month, agreed to take up the role.
Now the Premier League season is over, Lopetegui’s contract will be signed, allowing him to take over for the start of pre-season, which includes a two-week trip to the United States for matches against Crystal Palace and Wolves.
Ironically, Lopetegui spent the second half of the 2022-23 season with Wolves, guiding the club to safety. However, he left on the eve of the new campaign after issues over transfer funding failed to get resolved.
Moyes revealed after Sunday’s 3-1 defeat at Manchester City that he has already received job offers but is likely to spend some time with his family after getting only three weeks off last summer.
The Scot has agreed media commitments with BBC Sport and Talksport at this summer’s European Championships.
Former Spain and Real Madrid coach Lopetegui won the Europa League with Sevilla in 2020 before moving to Wolves two years later.
Nelly Korda secured her sixth victory in seven tournaments by winning the Mizuho Americas Open on Sunday.
The 25-year-old’s level-par 71 saw her win on 14 under, one shot clear of Australian Hannah Green at the Liberty National Golf Course in Jersey City.
Korda started the final day with a two-shot lead but had three bogeys and one birdie on the front nine to be level with Green at the halfway point.
After matching each other down the stretch it was the Australian who blinked first, missing a par putt on the 18th that would have forced a play-off.
The victory means American Korda bounced back at the first opportunity after her winning streak of five came to an end at last week’s Cognizant Founders Cup.
The world number one’s run had included last month’s Chevron Championship, the first major of the season.
It was Korda’s 14th LPGA Tour victory as she became the first American to win six or more times in a season since Beth Daniel won seven times in 1990. American legend Mickey Wright holds the record with 13 victories in 1963.
Korda will next turn her attention to the US Women’s Open at Lancaster Country Club, which begins on 30 May.
