Manchester United scouts ‘watched’ cheap Jadon Sancho alternative
By Bence Bocsak
Manchester United are keeping an eye on the winger.
It was Sir Alex Ferguson who first developed a reputation for unravelling obscure stars from different parts of the globe. From Park Ji-Sung to Bebe, the former Manchester United boss’ recruits had mixed success, but in most cases Ferguson was able to reap the rewards of his extensive scouting system.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer arrived at Old Trafford in much the same way as a player and his contributions for over a decade at the club remain indelible.
Now as manager, it seems the Norwegian is trying to learn the tricks of his former master and has endeavoured to find similar raw gems.

Kamil Jozwiak could be one of the first names on the current United manager’s list. The Polish winger has already made over 100 first team appearances for Lech Poznan at just 22 years of age and has enjoyed a stellar campaign so far scoring 8 times and handing out 7 assists in 35 appearances.
Kamil Jozwiak is diminutive with an excellent low-centre of gravity and an abundance of pace to burn which could be perfectly suited to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s style of play.
The Polish international possess a bulky frame which he will need to use in the hustle-bustle nature of the Premier League.
And according to Polish journalist Marek Wawrzynowski via Sport Witness, the Red Devils scouts watched Kamil Jozwiak during his outing for Lech Poznan this weekend against Legia Warszava.
Kamil Jozwiak was throughly impressive in the game scoring one and assisting another goal to help Lech Poznan to an important victory.
Of course the 22 year old does not come with the high pedigree of someone like Jadon Sancho, however with United short of options on the flanks, Kamil Jozwiak could be a useful back-up.
With the winger possessing all the right tools to go far in the game, it is not unfeasible that he could be a rough diamond in the making and could come out of his cocoon at Old Trafford to turn into a valuable player in the same ilk as Solskjaer or Park Ji-Sung.
He’d certainly be available for a relatively cheap price which would be a major bonus in the current financial market.
