Jadon Sancho

Manchester United have advanced talks in the last 24 hours to employ Jadon Sancho into the Premier League this season.

Despite the news of refusal to sell by Dortmund, the Red Devils have not given up, hoping to make sure that their number one target is acquired.

The deal went into hibernation because of agent fees and the personal terms of the player according to Sky Sports.

Intense progress has been made between Manchester United and Sancho’s representatives in the last few hours and reports suggest that an offer will soon be agreed as the Premier League season begins in three days’ time.

"I've been speaking to somebody close to a potential deal involving Jadon Sancho to Manchester United and in the past 24 hours, there have been developments and potentially good news for Manchester United fans, because the issues of agent fees and personal terms, I've been told, are no longer a problem," Sky Sports News reporter Sheth said.

"Manchester United are remaining tight-lipped on these developments but it's clear that some good progress has been made on overcoming the problems of agent fees and wages.

"We understand that United remain very resolute and determined to not overpay for a player given the realities of the coronavirus pandemic, but given that this was the issue for the past two or three weeks that Manchester United weren't making a bid because they needed to sort out agent fees and personal terms for Jadon Sancho, this appears to be some sort of a breakthrough.

"It's our understanding now that the agent fees and the personal terms are not going to be a problem anymore."

The Daily Express claimed last Monday that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has spoken to Jadon Sancho over a proposed switch to Manchester United and the English winger wants to make the move but wants to decently comply with the patterns of the German club until he is given the green light to make the switch to Old Trafford.
