• Sancho given fresh start with Chelsea loan move

  Jadon Sancho has secured a move away from Manchester United, having joined Chelsea on Deadline Day on a season-long loan.

  The deal includes an obligation to buy for between £20-£25 million at the end of the loan, according to widespread reports, meaning that the 24-year-old will not be returning to Old Trafford next summer.

  Work to complete the transfer came late on Deadline Day, with a deal sheet being submitted to ensure the signing could go through after the 11pm deadline.

  Chelsea were able to get the deal over the line, confirming the move was complete on Saturday evening. 

  "I’m really excited to be here," Sancho said. "London is where I grew up and I’m happy to be back.

  "The manager spoke to me about the project and, for a young player, it's exciting. Hopefully I can bring goals and assists to the Bridge."

  It brings an end to a three-year spell at Old Trafford for Sancho. The winger originally joined United on a five-year contract in 2021 but, following a public falling out with manager Erik ten Hag, found his first-team opportunities limited.

  Sancho made 83 appearances in all competitions for United, but his last start for the club came against Manchester City in the 2023 FA Cup final. He made three substitute appearances in August 2023 before moving back to Dortmund on loan in January, where he scored three goals in 21 appearances.

  His final outing in a United shirt came off the bench in their Community Shield defeat to Manchester City, but he was not included in the squad for the first two league games.

  Sancho joins a club with plenty of competition for attacking places, with Cole Palmer, Christopher Nkunku, Nicolas Jackson, Pedro Neto, Joao Felix and Noni Madueke among their roster.

  Chelsea did also manage to move some players on during Deadline Day. Raheem Sterling secured a loan move to Arsenal on Deadline Day, while Trevoh Chalobah joined Crystal Palace, Armando Broja moved to Everton and Djordje Petrovic was loaned by Strasbourg.

• McKenna: Ipswich have more belief after opening three matches

  Ipswich Town manager Kieran McKenna believes his side have gained belief from their opening three fixtures of the season.

  McKenna’s side picked up their first point of the Premier League campaign since being promoted on Saturday, drawing 1-1 at home to Fulham.

  This followed losses in two tough opening matches against Liverpool and Manchester City.

  Despite a total of just one point so far, McKenna believes all three matches were beneficial to help show his side how they can approach the season.

  "Especially in the Liverpool game, the players came away with more confidence from it," McKenna said.

  "And [against Fulham] we built on what we did against Liverpool. Our pressure was good and aggressive again.

  "I think the players have come away from the first three games with more belief to be honest."

  The 38-year-old was delighted with Liam Delap’s display after he got off the mark for the first time since his summer move from Manchester City.

  "I enjoyed his all-round performance, each week he’s getting stronger, he’s learning and he’s got great growth to come," added McKenna.

  “He’s got great potential, we have real faith in Liam and we are enjoying working with him.”

  Marco Silva was slightly disappointed that his Fulham side failed to build on last week’s victory over Leicester City.

  Adama Traore scored an equaliser before half-time but there was little between the teams after the break.

  Silva said to BBC Sport: “It was a tough game against an aggressive side. They have great support which demanded us to win duels and beat the pressure.

  "The reaction from us [after Ipswich scored] was good, we scored a good equaliser and after that we took a step forward and were completely in control.

  "[Traore] created some good moments for other players, he is in good shape, helping the team and the reason why he is playing is because he can be decisive for us if he can take the right decisions.

  "But the second half was a lot more difficult for us, we were not able to control the game the way we liked. We were solid, we did not give many things away but we did not create."

• Brentford 3-1 Southampton: Bees begin life after Toney with comfortable win

  Brentford began life without Ivan Toney with a comfortable 3-1 victory over Southampton.

  Bryan Mbeumo’s brace and a Yoane Wissa goal proved to be the difference between the two sides and condemned the Saints to their third straight loss since promotion back to the Premier League.

  With departed striker Toney watching in the stands after his move to Al-Ahli in Saudi Arabia, the hosts proved too strong for Russell Martin’s men. They created the superior chances and capitalised on an error-strewn performance from Southampton’s backline.

  Mbeumo opened the scoring on the stroke of half-time before doubling the lead halfway through the second period and Wissa then got on the scoresheet moments later to continue Brentford’s strong start to the campaign. Yukinari Sugawara bagged a consolation in injury time for the Saints.

  Brentford sit in fifth place ahead of the first international break, while Southampton are second-bottom of the league table with zero points.

  Data debrief: Wissa continues to prove effective at home

  Wissa now has five goals and two assists in his last seven matches at the Gtech Community Stadium.

  Brentford have recorded consecutive home league wins for the first time since last November, and the first time in their opening home games since August 2018.
