No compromise on Jadon Sancho fee: Borussia Dortmund doubt move will go through
By Tushar Bahl
Borussia Dortmund will not budge on their asking price of 120 million euros for Jadon Sancho, and Manchester United have two weeks to pay that sum.
According to Kicker, Borussia Dortmund have no room for negotiations or compromise in the Jadon Sancho transfer saga. If Manchester United want to sign the England international, they must meet the asking price of 120 million euros, and do so before the Dortmund squad jets off to their training camp in Switzerland on August 10.
If Sancho is part of the squad that travels to Bad Ragaz in less than two weeks time, he will stay with the Black and Yellows for the upcoming season. The 20 year old has two years remaining in his current contract with Borussia Dortmund, and the BVB bosses are under no pressure to sell him this summer.
Kicker add that there are doubts in the Borussia Dortmund camp about Manchester United’s ability to afford Sancho this summer. The coronavirus pandemic has led to heavy losses for all clubs, and there is a real skepticism about whether any big money transfers will take place this year.
Kicker also report that there has been a long-standing suggestion that Sancho would prefer a move to Liverpool over Manchester United anyways because of greater chances of winning titles.
Sancho was one of Borussia Dortmund’s top performers last season, scoring 20 goals and providing 20 assists in 44 appearances in all competitions. Reports claimed earlier this week that Jeremie Boga and Jonathan Ikoné are on top of Dortmund’s wishlist to replace Sancho, should he depart this summer
