JAKARTA - Manchester United had to buy Borussia Dortmund player Jadon Sancho this summer. If it is postponed until next summer, they will compete fiercely with Barcelona, Real Madrid and Liverpool.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has not given up on hunting for Sancho, although Dortmund have made it clear privately that they will keep the 20-year-old for at least one more season.
Despite seeing progress in agent fees and fees, United insisted they would not spend the 120 million euros requested by Dortmund and were ready to shift the hunt to other targets to fill holes in their squad.
With only three weeks to go to the transfer deadline, the possibility of negotiating loan contracts for experienced players like Douglas Costa, Kingsley Coman, Ivan Perisic or Gareth Bale is also being explored.
Sources told ESPN, as reported by Antara, Tuesday, September 15, that even if an agreement could not be reached this summer, Sancho will still be a transfer target in the next 12 months.
But there are concerns that if not signed now then Sancho could be a target for Barcelona, Real Madrid and Liverpool.
Sancho scored a goal for Borussia Dortmund against MSV Duisburg in a 5-0 DFB Pokal or German Cup match for Dormund on Tuesday morning WIB. This is Sancho's 100th appearance for the Bundesliga club.
Meanwhile, United are continuing to monitor Sergio Reguilon's situation in Madrid. United have been given the opportunity to buy the Spanish left-back, who was loaned to Sevilla last season, although MU chief negotiator Matt Judge and the 23-year-old's deputy have already met. Tottenham are also aiming for Reguilon.
