He grew up as a Chelsea fan and used to play football with his friend Reiss Nelson, who is now also a professional player. He joined the Watford football team when he was just seven years old.

Sancho later transferred to Manchester City when he was 11 years old and began to realize his full potential. He’d always wanted to play for England, and now he’s finally getting his wish.

3. Sancho’s father backed his City exodus:

When Sancho expressed his desire for a new challenge and expressed his frustration with not having enough time to play, Guardiola was surprised to learn that he had already been offered a new contract. Sancho, on the other hand, was serious about his decision.

“Sancho hasn’t shown up for training in the last two or three weeks. He was supposed to show up, but he didn’t,” Guardiola explained.

“We put forth a lot of effort. We spoke with his father, mother, and manager, but what can we do if the player says, “No.’

Sancho, who had travelled with his father Sean to conclude his German business, found it extremely difficult to leave his mother and sisters behind.

4. His younger brother and his arm tatoo:

At the time of his sibling’s passing, the United forward wrote a poem in anguish and got it tattooed on his elbow as a constant source of ‘inspiration.’

In an interview with FourFourTwo, Sancho explained the meaning of the tattoo and stated that his younger brother is still on his thoughts.
‘All I want to do is make him proud,’ he said. He is a source of inspiration for me.’

‘You and I will stay together, you made us happy, you brought us joy, you were a special baby boy,’ the poem continues.

‘I couldn’t wait to teach you football and win the cup when you grew up.’

‘But what can I do now that you’re gone?’ We adore you, baby brother.’
