Man Utd think they have beaten rivals to Jadon Sancho transfer after months of secret talks
MANCHESTER UNITED believe they have England superkid Jadon Sancho in the bag.
The Borussia Dortmund ace is understood to have agreed almost every detail of a move to Old Trafford — down to the small print.
Chelsea also want Sancho, 20, but he is keen on joining Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side, three years after leaving City.
SunSport understands the length of Sancho’s contract, his salary, bonuses and a huge buyout clause have been sorted out over months of secret talks.
United must now finalise a fee with Dortmund — which is set to become a record fee for a British club.

The German giants are determined to pocket MORE than the £89million that United paid to bring back Paul Pogba from Juventus in 2016.
London-born Sancho left City, aged 17, after becoming fed up at his lack of action under boss Pep Guardiola.
But he has been considering a return to England ever since United made first contact last summer.
