Manchester United 'confident of winning race to sign Jadon Sancho THIS SUMMER' with Old Trafford club hopeful of agreeing £120m deal for winger
* Jadon Sancho is widely expected to leave Borussia Dortmund in transfer window
* Manchester United are interested and willing to spend big to secure winger
* Englishman could move for £120million but a number of clubs are in the hunt
Manchester United 'lead the race to sign Jadon Sancho for £120million' this summer.
The Borussia Dortmund winger is widely expected to leave the Bundesliga side this summer and a host of top sides are interested.
According to the Mirror, United are front-runners and willing to part with £120m to secure the talented Englishman.
Sancho only joined Dortmund from United's rivals Manchester City back in 2017 and has seen his value skyrocket.
Liverpool, Chelsea, Barcelona and Juventus are among the other sides understood to be interested.
But the £120m price tag is regarded as too high by some, putting United in control of the situation.
United believe the £120m still represents solid value for the age and ability Sancho could offer the side.
Jadon Sancho is one of the most sought-after young players in European football. Ed Woodward could sanction a £120million move for the Borussia Dortmund star. Sancho has been phenomenal for Dortmund this season but looks to be on the move. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer sees Sancho as a key transfer target but a number of clubs are interested
It would shatter the previous club transfer record with the £89m paid for Paul Pogba still the most they have spent on a signing.
The Old Trafford club also tried to recruit Sancho last summer and their long-held desire to sign the 20-year-old could stand them in good stead.
They are said to be encouraged by the noises coming from the youngster's camp and are optimistic about their chances.
Sancho had 16 goals to his name in all competitions this term before coronavirus brought a suspension to play.
