WHAT HAPPENED?

Sancho appeared in a Premier League game for the first time in over a year as he finally made his debut for Chelsea on Saturday at Vitality Stadium. The English winger, who joined the Blues on loan from United this summer, came off the bench to provide the assist for Nkunku's 86th-minute winner against Bournemouth. As Sancho starred in his very first appearance for the Blues, fans took to social media to hail the player's contribution to the club's narrow win.

WHAT THE FANS ARE SAYING

An elated X user named Pys wrote: "Jadon Sancho mate, you are unreal."

A Blues fan with the username Trujista wrote: "Sancho might have produced the best wing performance of the day so far I’m not even over exaggerating here."

A popular Chelsea fan account with the username CFCMod_ posted: "This Sancho cameo, unbelievable man what a player."

An X user named sulkfenomeno hailed Sancho's contribution as immense, saying: "Sancho has been absolutely immense since coming on."

Alex Goldberg claimed that the United loanee has been the club's best player on the night as he wrote: "Jadon Sancho has easily been our best player since he came on."

THE BIGGER PICTURE

The 24-year-old last appeared in a Premier League game on August 26, 2023, for the Red Devils against Nottingham Forest. After that game, the player had a public fallout with manager Erik ten Hag which led to him being frozen out of their first-team squad. Sancho moved to Borussia Dortmund on a short-term loan in January and went on to reach the Champions League final.

WHAT NEXT FOR JADONS SANCHO?

After an impressive show for Enzo Maresca's side, the winger will now aim to break into the club's starting lineup in their upcoming Premier League fixture against West Ham on September 21.
