It appears that, finally, Jason Sancho is on his way to Manchester United.
That’s according to Sport 1 journalist Patrick Berger, who took to Twitter to inform the masses that Borussia Dortmund ‘will accept the third €85m bid’ from the Red Devils.
The first was of €72m, with the second being of €78m, and it appears it was third time lucky for Ed Woodward and co., whose last offer appears to have been the right one.
After what feels like years of negotiations, the two clubs have finally settled on a price, with the Bundesliga side, who ‘always wanted €90m’, deciding to ‘come towards’ Manchester United to meet somewhere along the way.
🚨 Update Sancho: #BVB will accept the third €85m bid from Manchester Utd (first was €72m, 2nd €78m). Borussia, that always wanted €90m, come towards #MUFC. There were good talks last days between Watzke & Woodward. Now it’s about details (add ons/payments installments) ⚫️🟡

‘Good talks’ over the past few days between Watzke and the aforementioned Woodward appeared to have sealed the deals, with the final negotiations to take place being those involving ‘add ons’ and/or ‘payment instalments’.
All in all, this appears to be heading in the ideal direction for Manchester United fans.
