Former Premier League striker Jan Aage Fjortoft conducted the post-match interview where he asked about the recent interest from his home nation.
Earlier in the day Fjortoft spoke to journalists in the know who had two theories about how Sancho’s stars will align.
“I arrived an hour ago and spoke to two journalists and all we discussed was Sancho,” Fjortoft said.
“Where will he end up next year? This very experienced journalist came up to me and said ‘Jan, people in and around the club say he will go to Manchester United’.

“Manchester United is very close to him, they are following him tight and they expect him to play at Manchester United next year.”
He added: “I asked a journalist who follows [Sancho] closely from one of the biggest papers in Germany.
“I asked if he will go to Manchester United but he said ‘No, no, no, Sancho will go to Liverpool’.
“Manchester United is in for him as well and there are four or five big candidates as well but he thought that because of the friendship between Klopp and this club they would prefer him to go to Liverpool.
“They said imagine if they had for or five candidates who all pay the same, they will let him go where they have the friends.”
