Liverpool 'very keen' on signing Jadon Sancho

Liverpool will reportedly seek to beat the likes of Chelsea and Manchester United in the race to sign Jadon Sancho in the summer.

The Merseyside giants have not made a big-name signing over the past three transfer windows but they are likely to bolster the squad when the season concludes.

According to former Norwegian star Jan Aage Fjortoft, the Reds are likely to make a couple of marquee signings for next season and Sancho is one of the prime candidates on their radar.

He added that Borussia Dortmund are likely to sanction the sale of the England international but he won't come on the cheap with the Bundesliga side set to demand at least £126m.

Sancho has flourised for Dortmund this term and he has already bagged 12 goals and 12 assists in the Bundesliga where the club are three points behind league leaders Bayern Munich.

Dortmund were dependent on Sancho to make the difference in the first half of the campaign, but the burden has been lifted with January signing Erling Haaland making a superb beginning to his Bundesliga career with seven goals from just three games.
