TOP STORY – UNITED GIVEN BOOST AS REDS & CHELSEA EYE SANCHO

Manchester United have been boosted by the news that rivals Manchester City will not be taking up the option to match any offers for Borussia Dortmund star Jadon Sancho, reports the Mirror.

Premier League champions City have first refusal on in-demand England international Sancho, who left the Etihad Stadium for Dortmund in 2017.

However, City are reportedly uninterested in bringing the 19-year-old back to Manchester amid talk of his £100million (€118m) valuation.

Liverpool are believed to be leading the race to sign Sancho, while the Daily Mail claims Chelsea are ready to make a club-record offer for the teenager – who has also been linked to Real Madrid and Barcelona.
