It has been more than a year now that Jadon Sancho was in talks with Manchester United over a deal. Dortmund had asked for £108million last year for Jadon Sancho, thus this £72.9 million deal is a significant win for Man United. Due to the changing economic climate of Covid-19 and with only 2 years left on Sancho’s contract, he had no other option but to go for the Manchester-based club.
With these new signings, United look like a formidable side. The defence that was shaky three years ago looks good with Shaw, Maguire, Wan Bisaka, Lindelof and Varane. The front three with Cavani, Rashford and Sancho also look deadly. The midfield with Pogba, Fernandes and co also will be a challenge for European sides.
