Man City Ready To Sign “Fantastic” £195k Per Week Star Who Haaland Loves

Manchester City, looking for a fifth consecutive Premier League title, have reportedly been given the opportunity to sign an attacking reinforcement who Erling Haaland admires.

According to TeamTalk, Sir Jim Ratcliffe gave Manchester City the opportunity to sign Jadon Sancho from Manchester United this summer. The Red Devils’ minority owner is said to have given opportunity to Chelsea and Arsenal, with all three teams poised to make a choice in the coming months.

City, of course, know all about Sancho given that he initially left their academy to join Borussia Dortmund, before beginning a nightmare spell at Manchester United.

Since enjoying a more resurgent spell back on loan at Dortmund, Sancho has reportedly been shown the door at Old Trafford this summer and finds himself at a career crossroads.

Whether Manchester City or, indeed, another club are prepared to splash the cash to sign Sancho and pay his reported £195k-a-week salary remains to be seen.

Meanwhile, the England international would likely jump at the chance to join Guardiola’s winning machine in a move that former Dortmund teammate Haaland may also welcome.

The star striker is a big fan of Sancho, having previously told SoccerBible via the Bundesliga’s official website: “The levels of performance are so high and from the first second we just understood each other. Jadon is obviously a fantastic footballer and he can reach the very top.”

Reuniting such a partnership at Manchester City could go a long way in taking the Premier League champions onto further history in both English and European football, but only if Sancho manages to rediscover the form that saw him thrive alongside the Norwegian in the first place.
