Reports | Manchester United to meet Borussia Dortmund’s £100m demand for Jadon Sancho

Despite being heavily linked with a move to Real Madrid, Barcelona, Manchester City, Liverpool and Bayern Munich, the Mirror has reported that Manchester United are leading the race for Jadon Sancho. The report added that the Red Devils are willing to meet whatever demands that Borussia Dortmund have for the young forward as they believe he’s just the man to help them move forward.

The Old Trafford side are slowly getting their season back on track but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s work is far from over. While the Norwegian has done relatively well to transform an ageing squad into a team that can challenge for trophies in the near future, he needs a few new additions before the transformation is complete. That might be easier said than done but reports have indicated that Jadon Sancho, Kai Havertz and Timo Werner are at the top of the club’s shortlist.

Not only that, Borussia Dortmund chairman Hans-Joachim Watzke has already admitted that he doesn’t believe that the club will be able to keep Sancho beyond this season. Yet despite their interest what could prove to be slightly problematic for the Red Devils is the fact that Manchester City have first refusal on any offer than arrives for Sancho reported the Mirror.

It’s a clause that the Cityzens inserted when they sold the 20-year-old to Dortmund and Bayern Munich’s interest in Leroy Sane has seen them considering a move for the English attacker.
