Manchester United have been desperately trying to sign Jadon Sancho from Bundesliga giants Borussia Dortmund before the new Premier League season begins.
Even though BVB have claimed that the winger will remain at the club next campaign but Manchester United have not yet given up hope and are eager to get the job done at any cost.
Dortmund want around £120 million in exchange for the 20-year-old which some pundits think is an exorbitant amount of money. But after Man United crashed out of the Europa League, Paul Scholes explained why Solskjaer needs to sign Jadon Sancho at any cost.
Scholes told BT Sport: “We talk about quality, we talk about spending money on a centre forward and wide players.
“We talk about hundreds of millions these days to get these players, but these are the players that win you trophies. These are the ones that win you medals.
“If they want to win trophies, they’ve got to start spending the money.
“They created chances tonight but if you think of Sancho in that team tonight I think United are scoring.”
"If they want to win trophies, they've got to start spending money.
"If Jadon Sancho was in that team tonight, United are scoring."

Dortmund are not ready to give Man United any sort of discount in the sale of Jadon Sancho so if the PL outfit cannot pay up, there’s no way the winger will be moving out of Germany in the coming few weeks.
But having said this, BVB know very well that if Man United back out, no other European club will be willing to spend so much money in the transfer market any time soon.
During the 2019-20 season, Sancho scored 17 and assisted 17 goals in 32 Bundesliga matches for Borussia Dortmund.
