Manchester United are ready to sell five players in order to help fund their move for Borussia Dortmund superstar Jadon Sancho – according to reports.
Sancho is United’s priority transfer target for the upcoming window on the back of an exceptional season in the Bundesliga.
MEN Sport understands the winger has a preference to return to Manchester but is expected to command a transfer fee upwards of £100million – a figure that could be deemed unrealistic due to the financial repercussions of the coronavirus pandemic.
