Borussia Dortmund are said to have put a £100m price tag on forward, Jadon Sancho, as interests for the English youngster continue to soar.

Sancho has become one of the indispensable players at Dortmund this season, scoring eight goals and providing 12 assists in 26 Bundesliga games as his side go neck-to-neck with Bayern Munich for the 2018/19 domestic title.

Sancho’s performance has also earned him a place in Gareth Southgate's England national team, while the 18-year-old has attracted interests from Manchester United and a host of other European clubs.

Ole Gunnar Solsjaer’s Red Devils are thought to be keen on landing the youngster in the summer transfer window, but their £80m valuation of the former Manchester City youth player is said to be below what Dortmund are targeting.

The Mirror reports on Thursday that Dortmund would not settle for anything less than £100m for Sancho, who, himself, is not under any rush to leave the Signal Iduna Stadium, where he has had his breakthrough.

Sancho could make his competitive England debut when the Three Lions face the Czech Republic in their opening Euro 2020 qualifier at Wembley on Friday.
