United beating Arsenal and other rivals for 5-goal poacher

Manchester United are believed to be having it all for themselves in the pursuit of Borussia Dortmund star Jadon Sancho if the report from bookmakers is anything to go by.

The 18-year-old player who left Manchester City at a younger age in search of a regular football has impressed in the German league scoring 5 goals in 17 appearances, a feat that has caught the attention of big European clubs including Arsenal and his former owners.

It is reported that City have realized their mistake in letting the young lad go and are making efforts to activate a buy-back clause on the player but that seems to be an impossibility on the player’s part knowing that getting a first-team football under the Pep Guardiola side might be very impossible.

In a bid to steal him away from other countries who might be planning claim the player, England national team coach Gareth Southgate invited Sancho the UEFA Nations League games earlier this month where he was handed his international debut.

However, the player seems to be comfortable with life in England and will rather decide on moving to the Old Trafford rather than the other side of Manchester so that he can continue his development.
