Sancho spent last season on loan at Chelsea, but the West London club ended up paying £5 million to get out of their £25m obligation to buy.
It’s understood there is no such clause in the deal with Aston Villa, but according to National World, the club are already looking to make the move permanent.
The report claims that Sancho has ‘shown enough to warrant a permanent deal’ despite only playing 82 minutes so far.
Villa won’t have to pay Man United a penny with Sancho’s deal at the club set to expire at the end of the season, although the 20-time champions do have the option to extend it by a further 12-months.
