Jadon Sancho 'considered for Dortmund loan' and other Manchester United transfer rumours

Borussia Dortmund are reportedly considering a loan move for Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho.

Currently, Sancho has 12 goals and six assists to his name from 79 appearances. Last season, the England international took time away from football and social media to focus on his mental health and performances.

According to Sky Sports Deutschland, Sancho is held in particularly high regard at the Bundesliga club. So much so, they would consider a straight loan or a loan with a low option to buy. While Dortmund are keen, it is understood Sancho wants to remain at United and fight for his place in Erik ten Hag's set-up.
