After the failed negotiations, the England international had trouble getting back into form, since his ’head’ was already in Manchester. But this time, Dortmund CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke acknowledged that the club has a „gentlemen’s agreement’ with Sancho to sell him, if the right offer comes. United was the only club willing to play the price (after a tough negotiations) and Borussia lowered their demands, and it appears that he will be sold for 11.5 billion in 2021.Manchester United to break the bank for Spanish centre-back Pau TorresJust to remind everybody what a fantastic job this is for Dortmund: they bought Jadon Sancho for only 1.2 billion in 2017, when he was just 17-years old and didn’t want to sit on the Manchester City bench, but was looking for more playing time.
