July 01, (THEWILL) – The drama to bring Englishman Jadon Sancho to the English Premier League side Manchester United from the Bundesliga has finally ended with the Borussia Dortmund confirmation that their skilled winger has completed a move to Old Trafford.

The 21-year-old has been a long-term project for United, who strenuously chased this transfer last summer as reported by THEWILL. Having failed to meet Dortmund’s asking price, United returned for the player this time around with a better offer.

Although initially rebuffed, the Old Trafford side sweetened the deal with more money and with the blessings of the Bundesliga side, agreed personal terms with Sancho to finally arrive at a deal worth about £72.9m.

The news of the agreed deal on Wednesday, as reported by THEWILL, was confirmed by a Thursday release of a financial report from Dortmund that highlights the fact that they expect to receive that sum of money from the Sancho deal.

Sancho, a proper right-sided forward, is going to be part of Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s squad improvement planned out for the United side to make them better contenders for the EPL title next season.

Since moving to Germany from neighbouring club Manchester City, Sancho has scored 50 goals in 137 appearances for the German heavyweights, and helped them win the German Cup last season, finishing the 2020-21 season on a hot streak of 13 goals in his last 21 appearances.
