Manchester United have told Borussia Dortmund they are willing to pay €85 million to secure Jadon Sancho this summer.
That is according to Italian hack, Fabrizio Romano, who has so far been on the money when it comes to Sancho updates since the transfer window reopened.
We will be catching up with Romano next week on the podcast, although his latest update cannot go ignore, with everyone hungry for updates on what has become a dragged out transfer saga.
Romano claims Dortmund are still asking for a guaranteed sum of €95 million, and the clubs are in talks about add-ons.

Add ons included as part of the negotiation ‘to reach an agreement soon’.

His final point is made very clear, however, that Sancho wants to join United.
United’s recruitment is heavily based on that and it’s why they are taking their time on transfers. They don’t want to sign another player in the wrong frame of mind, like Alexis Sanchez, and we all know how costly that was.
