Manchester United have agreed a deal for the signing of Borussia Dortmund ace Jadon Sancho, the Englishman set to join the club for a fee of £73m, pending a medical.
The deal – which will be officially confirmed following the player’s Euro 2020 commitments – will bring an end to what’s been a lengthy transfer saga, the player having originally been close to a move to Old Trafford last summer, only for United to be unwilling to match the German side’s strict demands.
While United have saved themselves around £25m, Dortmund have still made a very tidy profit on a player they plucked from Manchester City for just £8m back in 2017.
In that four-year spell, the 21-year-old has taken the Bundesliga by storm, the player having registered a remarkable 37 goals and 41 assists in 92 league games since the start of the 2018/19 season.
Such statistics are likely to hugely excite United fans ahead of the upcoming campaign, while his display against Ukraine in England’s quarter-final clash last weekend showcased his ability to bamboozle defenders with speed and trickery, leaving the ever excitable Rio Ferdinand to describe the Englishman as ‘unplayable’ at his best.
With that in mind – and with his time in Germany at an end – let’s take a look at the very best of Jadon Sancho at Dortmund:
