Jadon Sancho’s long-awaited transfer to Manchester United is growing, as the Red Devils are ready to match Borussia Dortmund’s valuation of 90 million euros plus bonuses for the English winger.
The two clubs have been in talks over a possible deal for a number of weeks and positive progress has been made by the Premier League giants.
According to the Dortmund outlet, Ruhr Nachrichten – often seen as a mouthpiece for the German club – Man Utd are ready to match Dortmund’s valuation of Sancho of 90 million euros plus, which shows that this transfer story is nearing its conclusion.
The agreement will soon be reached and Der BVB is already targeting the 21-year-old’s replacement: PSV Eindhoven star Noni Madueke.
As for the Red Devils, they are finally finishing their biggest long-term goal for the last three or four transfer windows. 90 minutes already revealed in September 2019 that Man Utd were “safe” to land their man, but when the corona virus was hit, they were no longer willing to fulfill Dortmund’s requested price.
The German club did not lower its demands in the summer of 2020 and left the deal dead in the water. However, Utd did not give up on the move and remained indeterminate due to Dortmund’s unwillingness to accept anything less than 120 million euros.

And 90min revealed exclusively in May that Sancho wanted a deal to be finalized with the Red Devils before Euro 2020, and Man Utd hoped to be able to agree on a fee of £ 75 million for their superstar goal.
Sancho has dazzled during his time in Dortmund, and he has gained recognition on the international stage and made his debut in England in October 2018. He has claimed 20 internationals and was included in the Three Lions Euro 2020 squad.
Vingen rarely participates in the summer tournament, although it may be due to the slow start he made in the 2020/21 campaign. But he recovered from the sluggish form to end the season with 16 goals and 20 assists in all competitions, showing his quality on the biggest stages in Europe.
