Manchester United 'to receive financial boost after Borussia Dortmund reach CL final'

The England international featured in both legs against Paris Saint-Germain as the German giants emerged victorious with a 2-0 aggregate scoreline, securing their place in the Champions League final for the first time since 2013.

The 24-year-old arrived at Old Trafford for a fee of £73m back in 2021 but struggled to make an impact before falling out with Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag at the start of this season.

After refusing to apologise to Ten Hag, Sancho was dropped from the first team before being loaned back to Dortmund during the January transfer window, accompanied by several financial stipulations.

According to talkSPORT, Man United included additional payment clauses in Sancho's loan deal to Dortmund, contingent upon certain achievements. Dortmund initially paid £3m upfront and a portion of Sancho's wages as part of the agreement to bring him to Germany in January.

The report adds that the agreement also includes a clause stating that BVB would pay the Red Devils a further £3.4m in bonus payments based on their Champions League progress and the player's appearances in the competition.

It is understood that the majority of those add-on payments have now been activated as a result of Sancho helping the side book their spot at Wembley Stadium on June 1.

Dortmund are believed to be eager to convert Sancho's loan move into a permanent transfer, but the player's current £290,000-a-week package could make it difficult to afford him.
