The Jadon Sancho transfer rumble is nearly shaping up to be a transfer saga. At just 20 years of age, Sancho has taken the Bundesliga and European football by storm with yet another prolific season. With Sancho continuing to dazzle with his performances on the field, the Jadon Sancho to Manchester United rumours have once again come to the fore. However, recent reports indicate that Man United have not yet made an offer for the Dortmund sensation.

According to reporter Fabrizio Romano, Borussia Dortmund will accept an offer by Manchester United, considering they table an acceptable one. However, talks are yet to resume between Borussia Dortmund and Manchester United, if the latest Manchester United transfer news is to be believed. The primary stumbling block between the two clubs is the asking price set by Dortmund for the Jadon Sancho transfer.
