English giants Manchester United have been given a fresh signal that Jadon Sancho will not be heading to Old Trafford this summer after Borussia Dortmund boss Lucien Favre declared that German club needs the services of Jadon Sancho
The English winger looks set to remain with the Borusia Dortmund for this season as Manchester United have refused to meet his £108million asking price with just three weeks of the transfer window remaining.
Borusia Dortmund have also been adamant that they would not let Jadon Sancho go late in the window as it would give them barely less time to find a replacement.
And it appears the Borusia Dortmund manager Favre has not considered being without his star man.
Swiss news agency SDS asked Borusia Dortmund manager Favre:
“Another gifted person will and will continue to work with you: Jadon Sancho is not (yet) moving to the Premier League. Have you breathed a sigh of relief?”

“But there are a few details that Sancho needs to improve. That’s normal for a 20-year-old.”
Solskjaer has already secured the services of Dutch midfielder Donny van de Beek but Jadon Sancho remains Manchester United’s number one target.
However, they have so far failed to agree a deal with Borussia Dortmund and are considering Gareth Bale as an alternative.
Last week It was reported that Manchester United had made a major breakthrough in negotiations for Sancho with his agent Emeka Obasi and intermediary Marco Lichtsteiner last week.
However United are still not prepared to meet Sancho’s valuation, as they feel his price is too high in the current pandemic
