On Wednesday night, Chelsea delivered a remarkable second-half display, enabling them to secure a comeback victory and win the UEFA Conference League title against Real Betis.
This victory marked a historic moment for Chelsea, as they became the first team to win every major European trophy.
Among the standout performers was Jadon Sancho, who made an impactful appearance off the bench to score Chelsea’s third goal.
With speculation swirling, many are eager to know if the English forward will remain at Stamford Bridge for the next season.
At 25 years old, Sancho joined Chelsea last summer from Manchester United on a loan deal with a mandatory buy clause of £25 million. However, Chelsea holds the option to forgo the purchase by paying a £5 million fee.
Although opinions are divided on whether Chelsea should retain Sancho, former player Joe Cole has shared his thoughts on the situation.
Joe Cole’s Thoughts on Chelsea’s Decision Regarding Sancho
When questioned about whether the 25-year-old forward has proven himself worthy of a permanent spot at Chelsea, Cole stated to TNT Sports: “Absolutely, I believe so. He was a standout player at Dortmund and a brilliant talent from a young age. His time at Manchester United didn’t show his true potential, but he has revived his career here. I genuinely believe he still has more to offer.”
While Cole’s endorsement is clear, fans remain on edge as they wait to see Sancho’s fate as summer approaches. Reports suggest that Chelsea has yet to communicate any information regarding Sancho’s future plans, meaning the Conference League final could potentially be his last game for the club.
If that were the case, his exit would come after a memorable performance against Betis.
