Signing the in-demand Borussia Dortmund attacker Jadon Sancho presents itself as a herculean task for Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool FC to pull through as both Chelsea and Manchester United remain interested in making a move for the England international.
The Old Trafford giants’ interest in Sancho is well documented, with the Red Devils boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer unable to land Sancho’s signing this past summer due to the Manchester-based outfit’s board being reluctant to shell out an exorbitant amount of money for the former Manchester City starlet.
Reports from the Express claim that the Red Devils will be joined in the race to sign Sancho by their top-flight foes Liverpool FC and Chelsea next summer.
Jurgen Klopp’s potential interest in raiding his former club for their prized attacking asset is suggested to be fueled by the speculation that surrounds Mohammad Salah’s long-term future in the Liverpool FC shirt.
Salah’s reluctance to commit to an extended deal at Anfield amid Real Madrid’s interest in the Reds star forward might convince Klopp to look at Sancho as a direct replacement for the Egyptian international on the right flank.
The Dortmund attacker has been in poor form since the turn of the season but a return to English top-flight football could reignite Sancho’s well-known prowess in front of the goal should such a move materialise.
