Edd02 do you think Utd will sign sancho this summer, first time poster avid reader.

{Ed002's Note - Jadon Sancho (RW) Manchester United messed everybody around last year and he has again been offered elsewhere to those who had previously enquired, but whilst Real Madrid are not interested, Chelsea may be willing to work directly with his club to secure a transfer rather than his agent. If Manchester United want him they are going to have to agree a deal before the summer. I would not be surprised to see interest from Liverpool but they have financial issues which could impact any offer. Bayern Munich have other priorities this summer and can be discounted.}

Hi Ed, is there any explanation for why "before the summer"? Is that Dortmund's deadline, or will they refuse United, it seems Zorc has said he would need to be sold prior to training camp. Does united have a different deadline?

{Ed002's Note - Dortmund want to know where they stand - they have financial issues and players to sell to raise the funds.}

I see, so I assume then they will (rightfully) think we aren’t serious if we don’t commit and move forward quickly given that it’s even a lower price.

Didnt they give a deadline last season which United ignored in the belief they would sell in the last minute. Wouldn't be surprised if they give a deadline again this year.

{Ed002's Note - I would not worry too much about deadlines. The overall cost was the issue.}

Are you confident he will move to United, Ed?

{Ed002's Note - There is no agreement that he will move to Manchester United.}

Thanks for the reply Ed. OK - we are further away from this happening than I thought. Some reports suggest the player wages are agreed (or have been agreed for some time) but there isn’t an agreed transfer price for the player yet.

{Ed002's Note - There is no agreement at all at this time.}

Thanks for sharing, Ed002.

Sancho would be a great acquisition followed by a top CB and a mobile CDM, things wouldn’t look as bleak perhaps?

I can't imagine anything has changed from last year lads. We will know what is required to make the deal happen, whether they actually pull through is another story.

If you look at our other signings such as Victor
lindelof, Harry maguire and Bruno Fernandes there’s a pattern where United seem to miss out only to buy them the following season. It’s probably the same with Sancho.
