JADON SANCHO remains likely to leave Borussia Dortmund this summer with Manchester United at the front of the queue, according to reports.
The 20-year-old has constantly been linked with a move away from Signal Iduna Park this season – but the financial effect of the coronavirus has changed the financial dynamics of every club in Europe.
Ed Woodward himself last month warned of the changes that fans would see in the transfer market this summer.
But according to The Athletic, the Red Devils are still in contact with Borussia Dortmund and a deal remains likely.
Speaking on the Ornstein & Chapman Podcast, the former said: "Sancho was expecting to move this summer and there’s still a very high chance that will happen.
"There’s an understanding between Sancho and Borussia Dortmund that if the right price arrives that he can go and there’s no expectation that Dortmund wouldn’t honour that, they’re said to be very honourable in these sort of situations.
"They’re looking for no less than €120million [£107m], some say to me no less than €130m [£116m] and that certainly the figure that they want is around what they received or agreed for Ousmane Dembele."
Manchester United have been the most proactive on that front, they’ve been in regular contact and very recently.
As for Sancho himself, he is believed to be happy at Borussia Dortmund and unlikely to cause a fuss if a deal can't be agreed upon.
But the England international, who has two years remaining on his contract in Germany, is expecting a significant offer to arrive for his services.
Ornstein continued: "He’s not agitating to move, he’s not going to cause a problem and if the deal is not right for him, he won’t go.
