Deal Close: Man Utd set to pay transfer fee of top target over three or four instalments

Manchester United are set to finalise an agreement with Borussia Dortmund over the transfer of Jadon Sancho to the club this summer transfer window.

Jadon Sancho has become United’s top target ever since the transfer window opened, as they are eager to add him to their squad.

United have been chasing Sancho since last summer, but they refuse to pay Dortmund’s €120m asking price, a fee that has now been reduced.

According to reports, Manchester United have agreed to pay a fee of €85m to Dortmund to take the former Manchester City youngster back to the northwest of the country.

United have also reportedly agreed on the paying terms with Dortmund as they hope to conclude the deal immediately after Euro 2020.

According to German daily WAZ, two clubs are expected to agree on Dortmund getting the money over a four-year instalment.

Sancho, who is currently with the England national team at Euro 2020, has long agreed on personal terms with Manchester United and have been waiting for the two clubs to work out an agreement.
