Getafe proposes 97 percent pay cut to Jadon Sancho, report says
Jadon Sancho faces a 97 percent pay cut under a short-term contract proposal from Spanish club Getafe, according to a report published by The Athletic and covered by A Bola. The 26-year-old English winger, currently without a club after his Manchester United contract expired at the end of last season, has been offered roughly 400,000 euros total until June, amounting to about 12,000 euros per week.
The Financial Contrast With Manchester United
The proposed earnings represent a severe drop from the approximately 300,000 euros per week Sancho collected during his tenure at Manchester United, where his annual salary reached about 15.5 million euros. Converted to the same currency, the new offer translates to a 97 percent decrease from his previous English wages. The Spanish club is experiencing financial difficulties.
Sancho arrived at Manchester United from Borussia Dortmund in 2021 for a fee of roughly 87 million euros. He struggled to meet expectations at Old Trafford, leading to subsequent loan spells back at Dortmund, Chelsea, and Aston Villa. During his time with Aston Villa last season, he made 39 appearances and featured as a substitute in the Europa League final before his contract concluded in the summer.

Managerial Frustration and Transfer Context at Getafe
Getafe currently sits 15th in the Spanish league standings. Head coach José Bordalás has expressed public dissatisfaction with the club’s recruitment policy and the lack of depth in the squad. Nem para uma competição, quanto mais três
(It has been shown that we do not have a squad for this.
Not even for one competition, let alone three
). Bordalás further stated: Não mereço isto, sinto-me enganado porque não se cumpriu o que me foi prometido ano após ano e estou zangado.
Gosto do Getafe e isto é muito doloroso
(I do not deserve this, I feel cheated because what was promised to me year after year was not fulfilled and I am angry.
I like Getafe and this is very painful
).
Despite the drastic financial shift, Sancho has not dismissed the proposal entirely. He views a move to La Liga as a viable platform to rebuild his career and reclaim his lost prominence. Before making a definitive choice, the player intends to meet directly with Bordalás.
Social Media Activity and Immediate Outlook
The immediate timeline depends on the outcome of目 the planned meeting between Sancho and Bordalás as Getafe attempts to secure reinforcements for the remainder of the league campaign, leaving it to be seen whether he is willing to accept such a sharp salary reduction to return to competitive play and steer his career in a new direction.
