After more than a year of chasing, Premier League side Manchester United have finally signed Jadon Sancho from Borussia Dortmund.
Man United have been negotiating with BVB for months now and just yesterday, Fabrizio Romano finally gave this deal a ‘Here We Go’.
And within 24 hours, Manchester United have officially announced the signing of the 21-year-old England international.
The official statement read: “Manchester United is delighted to announce it has reached agreement in principle with Borussia Dortmund for the transfer of Jadon Sancho.
“The signing is subject to contractual terms and a medical, which will be completed after Jadon’s involvement in the UEFA European Championship.”
Man United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was desperate to add a world-class right winger to his first-team squad and Jadon Sancho is the perfect signing to plug that hole in the first XI.
Here are the details of the deal as per Fabrizio Romano:
- Official announcement is already prepared by Manchester United and also medicals have been scheduled for Jadon in order to complete his move as new MUFC player.

2. Sancho will sign until June 2026, confirmed. But will be included a special clause/option to extend the deal until June 2027.
3. Jadon is waiting for this moment since last summer, he strongly wanted to join Man United. Personal terms and agents fee agreed/completed in every detail since three weeks.
4. Manchester City will receive around €13m as part of the agreement with sale percentage.
While the City fans will not be too pleased with one of their academy stars joining their local rivals but thanks to the sell-on clause the Etihad outfit have bagged a decent percentage.
