2:19 James Cooper updates us on Jadon Sancho’s potential move to Manchester United after the club agreed personal terms with Ajax’s Donny van de Beek
While the arrival of Van de Beek signals a step in the right direction on the transfer front for Manchester United, signing Jadon Sancho would serve as further indication as to the progress Solskjaer has made during his Old Trafford tenure.
United and Borussia Dortmund appear at an impasse in negotiations, however, with the clubs apart in their valuation of the England international.

“It feels Dortmund are comfortable he will be staying,” Reddy added. “But this just feels like a case of money.
“If Manchester United are willing to pay what Dortmund value Sancho as, he becomes a United player.
“We know there has been a tendency in the past for United to play the long game, haggle over money, and eventually pay what the club want anyway. We saw that with Harry Maguire and Fernandes.
“But, with that, you are starving the player of the chance to come in earlier and adapt to the team, and form chemistry, understand the culture of the club, and if that happens again, I don’t think supporters will appreciate that, to let so long pass before paying what they wanted anyway.
“Sancho is an incredible player, and not just because of his profile, his attributes – his intelligence and technique – he has it all.”
