Boost for Manchester United with Borussia Dortmund set to charge lower fee for Jadon Sancho
According to The Scottish Sun (h / t Express), Borussia Dortmund is keen to cut the selling price of Manchester United target Jadon Sancho.
This will be a boost for United, who have been chasing the player all summer. One of the best young players in world football, the incorporation of Sancho will be a declaration of intent.
Dortmund’s £ 108m starting price has proven to be an insurmountable barrier for United. With time running out before the window closes, something has to give.
According to the report, Dortmund is now ready to reduce its demands. The Bundesliga giants are now willing to accept £ 95 million for the player.
Doing so will show that Ed Woodward is right. You had previously made the decision to wait until the end of the window to lower the price. If the report is to be believed, it is now vindicated. (h / t Express)
A right winger is at the top of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s priorities. There are few better in the world right now than Sancho.
Sancho is off to an excellent start to this season. He has played three games for Dortmund, scoring once and assisting two more. (h / t Transfermarkt)
With an average goal contribution per game, the impact he has on his team’s attack is significant.
The prospect of adding that alongside the likes of Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Bruno Fernandes should make us a force to be reckoned with.
However, the report can be taken with a pinch of salt, as Fabrizio Romano tweeted that Dortmund are still holding fast to their initial assessment. (h / t Express)
