Borussia Dortmund set transfer deadline for Jadon Sancho

Borussia Dortmund have reportedly set a transfer deadline for Jadon Sancho amid the interest from Manchester United.

The England international has been regularly linked with the Red Devils in recent months, but the club have yet to make a move for his services.

According to Ruhr Nachrichten, Dortmund don't want a prolonged saga over Sancho's future and they are keen to solve his situation in the coming weeks.

It is added that the German side have set a deadline until the end of the month and won't entertain the prospect of selling their prized asset beyond that period.

United are said to be preparing a bid of around £50m for Sancho and that is significantly less than the £100m price tag which has been set by the Bundesliga outfit.

Dortmund CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke has previously said that there won't be any coronavirus discount on Sancho and it remains to be seen whether United are prepared to shatter their transfer record for his services this month.

Sancho, who is currently contracted to Dortmund until the summer of 2022, registered a superb tally of 20 goals and as many assists during the recent campaign.
