Following the speculations that three Premier League clubs are scrambling to bring him back to England, reports said Jadon Sancho will likely keep playing in Bundesliga until the end of 2020. The 19-year-old is said to be more inclined to make a switch in January, likely leaving Manchester United, Liverpool, and Chelsea to wait six more months.
The three English clubs are believed to be pursuing the teenage sensation who already appeared in 87 games for Borussia Dortmund, registering 30 goals and 41 assists. In the season alone, Sancho has so far netted 16 goals and 18 assists in all competitions, thus making him more attractive to interested clubs.
According to FourFourTwo, the England international is also a target by Spanish giants Barcelona and Real Madrid but luring him out of Germany might not happen this summer.
"Sancho has not officially told Dortmund that he wants to leave this summer. There is still a chance that the winger could stay in Germany for at least another six months beyond that," the report said.
In any case, Dortmund appears ready to talk with buyers willing to pay the price for Sancho, who according to the same report now has a minimum asking price of £84 million. It's unclear though if the German will be offering the youngster an extension that will match or surpass that Sancho will be getting from offer sheets sent by the elite European clubs.
Meanwhile, pundits are saying that if Sancho will choose England over Spain as his next destination, the chance is high he will pick Anfield instead of Old Trafford, the Express reported.
Despite the stories linking the young winger to the Red Devils, it would seem that Liverpool can secure the transfer if the European champions are ready to open up a slot. That means letting go of a key player and the choices have been identified as Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane or Roberto Firmino.
Releasing any of the three will increase the chance of Liverpool to win the race of signing Sancho, the report added.
Liverpool, however, will be breaking the bank to bring Sancho over. The estimated cost for the player's transfer could easily reach £100 million that will include the purchase price and Sancho's salary.
Express said Sancho could potentially become the top earner in Anfield should he make the move and it is a price that Liverpool will be willing to pay, however costly.
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is expected to immediately make use of Sancho's football skills but promoting the teenager to first-team will all depend on the balance that the German will like to maintain at the Merseyside.
