Uncertainty on the Jadon Sancho transfer was propagated by Dortmund manager Lucien Favre, who earlier said that he doesn’t know whether Jadon Sancho will stay at the club next season. According to the rumblings in Manchester United transfer news, it is reported that United are unwilling to spend big on a single player, owing to the current financial climate due to the coronavirus pandemic. As a result, Man United are looking to strike a deal with Borussia Dortmund that will see them pay the Jadon Sancho transfer fee over a period of time, as opposed to a single outlay.
