Our best possible option to get Sancho is this summer as I can see other clubs sniffing next season. Right now, most clubs do not want to spend the money. 100m is a lot of money and Sancho is no doubt a player with the world at his feet. It's a huge dilemma for Ole to take as he could use that sort of money and strengthen 2 possible positions with players with the Bruno caliber instead of having one superstar (Balon' D'or winning potential) player. Ferran Torres is the same age and will cost us 40m and possibly add Van De Beek (35 - 40m). I feel like Grealish is joining City, especially with the Sane sale. Although, I do feel that City should be looking at CBs as they are heavily reliant on Laporte.
Jadon Sancho| Staying at Dortmund for now

Took absolutely no notice of this story as I saw it all before with Maguire last summer a
We need to get some squad players out first in order to sign Grealish and ideally for City's ban to get reduced to one year as just cannot see the two year ban being upheld. The worst case scenario being that it gets overturned completely and then it could be tough to sign him ahead of them.
One thing that could still work in our favour is the response he got from our crowd for that brilliant goal at the Stretford end in December and am sure I have read somewhere that we have been keeping track of his progress since he broke into the Villa team around five years ago.

If anyone needed convincing.
Is it 35m then?
shocker.
Wow..
My interpretation of that is he needs to grow up because he isn't anywhere close to being the best and if he leaves we have plenty of young talent waiting to replace him.
Weren’t there reports that they wanted Greenwood as a make-weight. Might have been last summer or just something that popped up during the season.
This is what I think as well.
I’m disappointed that there is no “preparing bid” in this.We’ve had this yesterday mate

Yea we go through this same song and dance literally every window for the past 5-6 years
We'll brief that we're not willing to be bullied on valuations early only to end up meeting halfway or paying up the near selling club's full valuation by the end of the window or further down the road...
All this tells me is that we're actually trying to make this happen which is exciting. I also don't think we'll come to regret having 4 top young forward talents under 25, 3 of them English, for the next 5 years+ even if we do cough up near 100m
Can't say I've heard that mate, if it was true then they'd be laughed out of the meeting by United, and I doubt any United fan would have a bar of that deal, I think Sancho is a supreme talent, but Greenwood can be just as good if not better, we want both, not either/or IMO.
Yes white text!!!
Enjoy I don’t see him not leaving if he’s been left out of their promotional material.
Unless he appears in some in the next few weeks it’s a very telling indication.
We didn't even brief we weren't going to be bullied, Sky just made up that were only gonna pay £50m.Yea we go through this same song and dance literally every window for the past 5-6 years

I’m sure the 2nd part of the story was they were told there is no chance.

Get in
He was never going to go back anyway. Just common sense. It's Utd or staying at Dortmund and it's clear which one looks more likely
Only the most negative of muppets ever thought there was ever a chance of Sancho going back to City, it was never ever happening.
Just us and Chelsea then
Chelsea are obviously not still in for him though
Funny that.
Said many times Sancho and Pep fell out! He's a red already lads.

It's obviously not a flat 50m. it's 20m + 30m if we win the treble next year.
.
According to Andy Brassel who is a European football correspondent that appears on ESPN. He said that before Sancho left City, Bayern asked Guardiola to give them a reference on Sancho and his response was that the player had caused him alot of trouble and was hard to control.
You're right, as part of the talks last summer and a few journalists have said it since, we point blank shut down any chance of Greenwood being part of the deal.
Which is probably translated to 'anyone with a personality'. Pep has had issues with heaps of top players who have done incredibly well elsewhere, in the past. I doubt it's anything to worry about, especially considering Sancho was so young.
Just us and our 50 mil thenChelsea are obviously not still in for him though
If true - this doesn't go well with Ole's recruitment strategy.
Pep was just annoyed that Sancho wouldn't sit on the bench for 2 years and be patient like Foden.
I like that Sancho said stuff it to a guy like Pep, wanted to make it his own way. He'll be back to Manchester don't you worry Pep
Bruno will set him straight.
It wouldn't have made sense for Sancho anyway, all the reports earlier in the year said he valued playing time.
I'd take Mason over Jadon any day of the week.
Yeah but we said no chance, if those reports are to be believed.
Yup, football legends like Eto'o, Yaya Toure and Ibra have all spoken on this exact point before
Sane is not worth one penny more than €50m. He is already 24, and at the stage of his career where he won’t improve dramatically as a player. He is probably at his “footballing peak”, which is still very good, but nothing exceptional. And he has just come back after a horrible torn ACL injury, which ruled him out for nearly one full season.
Jadon Sancho is worth at least twice that sum.
Leroy Sanè is easily one of the best prospects in world football. Any normal market he goes for about 70-80 mil even in the final year of his contract. It’s like people have forgotten how good he was/is. He’s easily Rashford, Martial quality. bayern picked up an absolute bargain on that one.
it's been reported by multiple reliable sources that Chelsea made an initial approach last season but haven't been in contact sinceYer i agree he may not be on sancho or greenwood generational talent same as Rooney and messi were but is still a top top player
Don't think Chelsea are in for him now or last year due to ban but I guess enquired for future and its wrong they ban only kast the summer window not January and this summer makes a mockery of breaking rules and not really being punished for it
