Is that legit?
Yes.
The Sun saying today that he'll snub a move to us to 'complete his 3 year plan' at Dortmund. Not sure how reliable they are with Sancho but I hope they're wrong.
Who's reporting it?
Yeah people need to start focusing on who writes the story, not the publication its appearing in.
The Sun...
He's known to be good friends with Rashford and Gomes.
He means which reporter, there is plenty at sun football. Some with agendas.
Charlie wyett reporting it. whoever he is...
Yes it is. He posted two Instagram stories. One with the Rashford comment and another video of him repeating 'I have no words.'

Yeah I'd prefer we if we bought him after a year or two but who knows what'll happen till then. Need to buy him this summer.
Thanks. Interesting, I knew he was friends with Gomes in particular but Instagramming our game is a bit surprising.
He's coming. Believe.
Having a deep run in the CL and Dortmund having going out early could definitely help us with getting Sancho. I remember Hazard signed for Chelsea partly due to them winning the CL.
Our team is nearing a title challenge finally, I'd be incredibly disappointed if we don't go after Sancho or another strong RW as it's the one position we're really lacking in currently.

Any player seeing the way we played on Wednesday, the way our former players love the club, and the way our current squad love the manager, must want to be a part of it.
The alleged figures being quoted for this lad are ridiculous. Good player but I want more than potential for that money if it's true.....
It's essentially like buying Rooney for 30m 15 years ago. That deal turned out pretty well for us didnt it??
Likeliest outcomes in this order this summer imo are:
Obviously for us we want him asap, and we make the most sense for him in every aspect if he does leave IMO. If he stays I can see us not signing an attacker and holding out another year for him, or agreeing a deal for the next year like Liverpool did with Keita. Hes the perfect option so we have to get it right, if it means waiting then so be it.
- He stays at Dortmund
- He comes to United

How? He was England's best player and one of the best players at the Euros at Euro 2004, aged 18 and allowing him to be the youngest goalscorer in the history of the European Championships at that time.
Sancho still has a ways to go to prove himself on the big occasion. And £30 million in 2004 wasn't as rare a transfer fee as £100 million in 2019. So clearly they are not the same.
I agree. But it seems unrealistic to expect a move for a substantial lesser fee. It just does. He is going to play for United next season though.
Very much doubt it. I think he'll stay at Dortmund and not be quite as good and will move after another season or more
Ole is at the wheel, you need to have your dreaming glasses on mate. More realistic that way
Anyone saw this?
It reads:
Jadon Sancho is PSG's target for the next transfer. Thomas Tuchel, ex-coach of Borussia Dortmund called him. Although he hesitates with Manchester United, the elimination of the English club tomorrow should make him decide for the Parisian side.
I suppose he can safely come to United now.

Haha, brilliant.
There have been just 7 transfers in the last decade above Ronaldo's £80 million move which became the record at the time.
7 in 10 years.
Yes the top 6 have all been in the past 3 years, but that doesn't mean every youngster who has a really good season is now a £100 million player.
Thats only on Football Manager.
Of those 6, only MBappe was signed with near just 1 season proving himself. He had 51 appearances in France, Europa League and Champions League.
So Sancho, unless he matches those appearances signing for a club for a top 10 fee would actually be something unprecedented.
He's at 43 appearances so far. And can make 53 if he plays in every game till the end of the season.
Then you ask, is he as good as MBappe?
I'd say no.

Him celebrating our goal is basically his reply to the recent man utd vs psg rumour on his transfer. This could actually happen 
I think people seem to forget just how fantastic Rooney was as a teenager. He was a bargain.
Will he cost as much as Mbappe? no.
You seem determined to push your valuation of Sancho. Just because Sancho is valued at that doesn't mean every youngster will cost 100m.
Sancho is one of the few teenagers who could command that fee, you seem determined to lower his status from among the elite young talents to throw him in with other, nameless strawman kids to prove a point.
There will be a bidding war for Sancho for a reason. He'll become more of the mean for the outrageous young talents than once in a gerneration Mbappe will. I mean, you say 7 100m transfers in ten years like its a rare occurrence and even then its a disingenuous stat as 6 (?)of those have happened within the last two summer transfer windows which shows the radical change in the market which goes against the point youre trying to make.
Thats not including the many transfers that have happened that's just 15-20m short of that figure.
Saying that, it's 100m euros right?

Hes having a good season, happens just about every year that a youngster has a good season. So if Sancho will be bought for that, so will next season's Sancho and so on
Only if you ignore how good he's been and how talented he is.
They sold a player who is not as rated as Sancho for £60m. He even had an expiring contract as well.
May have been a bit of desperation on Chelsea's behalf though with the transfer ban looming.
Realistically though, if anybody expects Sancho to be less than £80m they've got a shock coming.
I can see a base of £80 with a few add ons in bonus clauses like the Martial deal. I hope we've already started the negotiations.
........I'm sure people wanting to spend 100m is based on watching him play or is it more about the hype? I get it and it's not my money but I'm fed up with us spending these massive amounts on shiny things cause we have the money when I think we have potential in the club and we need to look in other English clubs too. Chelsea and city have let some really good players go elsewhere over the years and arguably although it's a few years ago, Pogba proved a costly mistake. The thing I like about Ole is it's clear he's gonna give our young players a chance.
Aye.
There was no risk at all signing Rooney in 2004, it was obvious he was a special talent.
Nobody's quoting a £165m transfer fee for Sancho. You're answering a question that nobody's asked.
We're talking about the same really good player that you yourself said City have let go. Or rather, they only let him go because Sancho wanted out. I'm all for buying talented young players
De Gea - Biggest transfer fee spent for a teenage goalkeeper at time of purchase
Martial - Biggest transfer fee spent for a teenage player at time of purchase
I'm all for Sancho and De Ligt. Two players who can dominate European football along with our strongest class of young players in a decade.
Royal we? No denying the potential but 100m, no chance. You might be right he wanted out as Pogba wanted out too, both because they didn't get the chance. All I'm saying is let's not make the same mistake whilst chasing others, forgetting how that hinders our own players development. Lindelof and Dalot have also shown we don't always have to spend big with the right scouting. Funny how the German teams seem to be recognise young potential better than we are currently are and importantly given them first team opportunities....
You can't assume that we have talent on the same level as Sancho or we will find talent on his level. Potentially we have Greenwood, but many of us see him as a striker in the future even though he can play as a wide player. Sancho was the 2000 born English group's biggest talent. Signing Sancho will probably affect Chong, but Chong should not be prioritized over Sancho. Not nearly as skilled, is older, and isn't close to performing to the level of Sancho despite the huge difference in their respective competition's levels.
Also, a right wing upgrade is a priority and no matter the age of that player, will interfere with Chong. Might as well get someone who can grow with Greenwood, Gomes, Rashford, Martial, etc...
Paying 90£ for Sancho is ridiculous. He has only one good season behind him. Better then to buy Ødegaard then from Real Madrid for 30£.
And then Sander Berge dm for maybe 35£
Biggest talent in that position in the world.
