Jadon Sancho to Manchester United continues to rumble on in both the German and English sport media, with reports from the media closer to the Bundesliga sounding confident about a move.
Bild say the transfer is now in the ‘home stretch’ and Sancho is ‘finally’ on the verge of a move to Old Trafford after a long, and frankly irritating, transfer saga.
The German newspaper believe Manchester United will end up paying around €90m for the player, and they explain Borussia Dortmund already have plans for where the money will go.
Once again it’s stated Donyell Malen is the first choice for that role, however, BVB don’t want to pay a crazy fee and won’t go any higher than €27m.
PSV may well see what Borussia Dortmund have done with Sancho and believe they can get a little more from the German side, playing them at their own game.
Ruhr Nachrichten, the newspaper closest to BVB, cover claims about a Sancho deal being close and, crucially, this time they don’t rubbish it… which is cause for optimism.
