It’s like something you’d see Barcelona players do when the Catalan club were trying to re-sign Cesc Fabregas from Arsenal (timeline of that saga courtesy of Arsenal Report).

Borussia Dortmund stars Mats Hummels and Axel Witsel have responded to the news that Jadon Sancho was staying at the Westfalenstadion amid heavy speculation that the winger was on his way to Manchester United, as per BILD.

When you consider how long United have been linked with Sancho, it’s pretty poor that the saga has turned into a circus show with talks still ongoing. Will this be another deal that takes the Reds an entire transfer window to conduct, like Harry Maguire last summer?
