Jadon Sancho did not want to join Manchester United, says Michael Zorc
Jadon Sancho was linked to a move in the summer to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's team. The Borussia Dortmund star is one of the most promising players of his generation, with Europe's bigwigs already scouting him in an attempt to acquire a player who could challenge for the Ballon d'Or in the near future.
Various newspaper have linked the 19-year-old to Manchester United during the latest transfer window. However, according to Goal, Jadon Sancho had no intentions of joining the Red Devils, as he's trying to establish himself in the Bundesliga side. The Die Borussen sporting director Michael Zorc has made that clear in the Amazon Prime newest documentary about the club, that Sancho never wanted to join the Red Devils.
"A hot topic right now is Sancho and Manchester United. Both his discussions with the club and mine with the consultants. A meeting did take place. Manchester United invited the consultant. But, according to what I know, the consultant told the club that no matter how much money they offer, we won’t let him go this summer. But the player also has no intention of taking that step this summer," Zorc confessed.
Sancho continues to improve season after season, and with 19 years old he's already one of the best wingers in the world. A club like Manchester United could give him more exposure as they're one of the biggest clubs in the world, and a chance to play in arguably the best league at the moment.
