Sancho’s impressive assist record at Chelsea already surpasses several Manchester United stars combined.
An eye-catching statistic has emerged following Chelsea’s 4-2 victory over Brighton, and it’s sure to stir discussion among Manchester United fans. Jadon Sancho, who joined Chelsea from Manchester United in the summer transfer window, has hit the ground running at Stamford Bridge with an explosive start.
Sancho has started Chelsea’s last two Premier League matches against West Ham and Brighton, after debuting as a substitute against Bournemouth. In just three appearances, the winger has already racked up three assists, including setting up Cole Palmer’s second goal in Saturday’s win over Brighton.
A remarkable statistic reported by Squawka reveals that Sancho’s three assists this season already surpass the combined tally of Manchester United players Bruno Fernandes, Alejandro Garnacho, Marcus Rashford, Mason Mount, Christian Eriksen, Joshua Zirkzee, and Kobbie Mainoo, who collectively have only managed two assists.
Sancho’s departure from United came after a turbulent period under manager Erik ten Hag, which saw the 24-year-old banished from the squad due to a public dispute. He later rediscovered his form on loan at Borussia Dortmund, helping the team reach the Champions League final. Despite being involved in United’s pre-season, Ten Hag sanctioned his transfer to Chelsea, where Sancho appears to have rejuvenated his career under new boss Enzo Maresca.
Chelsea, now benefiting from Sancho’s creativity, have collected 13 points from their last five matches, showing his impact on the team since arriving. This statistic will no doubt leave Manchester United supporters wondering about the club’s decision to let him go.
