Jadon Sancho set to smash English transfer record as Manchester United close on £108m deal

Camberwell’s Jadon Sancho could be set to smash the English transfer record – with Manchester United reportedly closing in on a money-spinning deal to land the Borussia Dortmund attacker.

The Daily Mail say that the 20-year-old’s transfer to Old Trafford could reach £108million.

They also claim that Sancho will sign at least a five-year contract.

The paper describes talks between the two clubs as “advanced”. Dortmund paid just £8m when they snapped him up from Manchester City in 2017.

Sancho is reportedly earning £190,000-a-week at the German club.

The current English transfer record is already held by Manchester United, who splashed out £89m to sign Paul Pogba from Juventus in 2016.
