Manchester United: Five signings Solskjaer could make in January

4. Jadon Sancho

The English international has been rumoured with a return to his homeland ever since he made the move from Manchester City to Borussia Dortmund in 2017.

That was a very bold move for Jadon Sancho. He became a pioneer for young British talent with a whole flock of players following in his footsteps over the last couple of years and making their way abroad.

Sancho’s bold move paid dividends though, at Borussia Dortmund he was given the game-time and the opportunities which he needed to develop as a player and slowly and surely Jadon Sancho has become one of the brightest talents in European football.

The young English international has been ripping it up at Borussia Dortmund this season and he is in the form of his life having scored 9 goals and assisted 9 in 15 appearances in the Bundesliga already.

Add to that 2 further goals in the Champions League and it is easy to see why some people regard him in the same ilk as Kylian Mbappe.

Yet however, Jadon Sancho is rumoured to be unsettled in Germany and Dortmund are willing to let their star player go for the right price.

United are clearly in need of a mercurial talent. The club hasn’t had a true world class winger since the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo and Sancho could be the perfect candidate to fill that void on the flanks for potentially the next decade.

With money clearly there to be spent Ed Woodward should fork out as much as Dortmund demand for Sancho’s services because the young Englishman has the potential to completely turn United’s fortunes around.

He could be the next star.
