Jadon Sancho has wanted to join Manchester United for some time

DBasia.news – Manchester United finally closed the hunt for Jadon Sancho with a smile. However, who would have thought that Sancho had wanted to join the Red Devils for some time.

The journey for Manchester United to obtain Jadon Sancho’s signature was very winding. The main problem is the difficulty of reaching an agreement with Borussia Dortmund.

Manchester United were very close to securing Jadon Sancho last summer. However, the Red Devils chose to retreat as Dortmund’s value reached 100 million euros.

Dortmund began to soften and give discounts. The club, which is synonymous with yellow, is willing to sell Sancho for 80 million euros. Man United, knowing the change in Dortmund’s gesture, immediately pressed forward.

Apparently, there is an interesting story behind the transfer of Jadon Sancho to Manchester United. The story was told by Dean Henderson.

The goalkeeper was tasked with persuading Jadon Sancho to want to move to Manchester United. The two often talked when they are at the England national team’s training camp ahead of the 2020 European Cup.

“Yes, Jadon Sancho is an extraordinary player. I spent a lot of time with Sancho. However, I only spoke to persuade him to join Manchester United,” Henderson told MUTV.

“Jadon Sancho doesn’t need to be persuaded because he decided to move here last season. I’m glad he joined us and showed everyone the talent he has.”

After Jadon Sancho, Manchester United completed another big transfer, namely Raphael Varane from Real Madrid. Reportedly, to be able to sign Varane, Man United spent up to 50 million euros.
