Manchester United have been given a major update regarding their transfer pursuit of Borussia Dortmund star, Jadon Sancho and it is a shock.

United’s current target, Jadon Sancho is set for a similar superstar status as the aforementioned names. The 19 year old England international is regarded as one of the hottest prospects playing in the world right now.
His skill and prowess has been eye catching of late. So far Sancho has racked up 18 assists and scored 19 goals in 33 games for Borussia Dortmund this season.
