Sancho to United UNLIKELY after Dortmund 'close door' on transfer

Jadon Sancho has been the primary target for Manchester United through the summer, but the club had already been given a date by Borussia Dortmund to complete the transfer at their asking price. Manchester United did not do so, hoping that Sancho's desire to move back to England would bring the asking price down.

There has been a lot of speculation around the Sancho transfer for two main reasons. One, Sancho missed the 4-0 victory over SC Freiburg and the SuperCup final against Bayern Munich, however, that was due to a respiratory infection. Two, some were hinting at a transfer as Sancho was spotted in England last week. However, the purpose of Sancho's visit to England is that he's due to join the Three Lions squad ahead of the upcoming Nations League matches against Belgium and Denmark and a friendly against Wales.
