Football transfer news: Man United unwilling to meet Dortmund's Jadon Sancho value 

Dortmund had earlier valued the Jadon Sancho transfer at £110 million ($142 million). However, Man United are unwilling to meet the Jadon Sancho value. Instead, several reports claim that the Premier League heavyweights have presented an offer of £89 million ($115 million). The coronavirus pandemic is expected to bring down the transfer fees in the upcoming window. 

Sancho earns a mammoth £190,000 a week ($250,000), with his Dortmund contract set to expire in two years. He netted 20 goals as well as an equal number of assists this season, intensifying interest from Europe's heavyweights. Man United star Jesse Lingard recently spoke of his desire to play alongside the England international. He reportedly described Sancho as a great player asserting that he has seen him play well for the England national team.
