Dortmund confirm Sancho move to Manchester United

Borussia Dortmund have confirmed that Jadon Sancho will join Manchester United this summer.

The Bundesliga club have informed the stock exchange of the €85 million transfer with the deal set to be completed once Sancho does his medical.

A statement from Dortmund on Thursday morning read: "The player Jadon Sancho is about to move from Borussia Dortmund GmbH & Co. KGaA to Manchester United Football Club Limited.

"Both clubs and the player reached an agreement on this today. If the transfer is realized, Manchester United will pay BVB a fixed transfer fee of €85 million.

"The contractual details now have to be coordinated and documented.

"The formal processing of the transfer is also subject to the successful completion of all necessary medical tests and examinations, a coordination procedure with the player’s previous club and the proper and timely processing in accordance with the provisions of the FIFA Transfer Matching System (FIFA TMS)."

Sancho is currently with the England squad at Euro 2020 but he has only played six minutes of tournament football under Gareth Southgate.

The 21-year-old was set to move to United last summer but the Premier League club didn't meet Dortmund’s asking price of €125 million.
