Sancho has established himself as one of the brightest young talents in football, so United are bound to be interested, and it’s worth remember that he left Man City in search of first time football before joining Dortmund and taking Germany by storm.
He has played some fantastic football under Lucien Favre, and this season he has a staggering 17 goals and 19 assists from 35 appearances across all competitions this season.
