Jadon Sancho: Dortmund star's future discussed by experts
Borussia Dortmund are said to want the future of Jadon Sancho resolved before their pre-season tour begins on July 23. That's according to Sky Sports News reporter Dharmesh Sheth, who claims Manchester United will need to move quickly after the European Championships to land their top target.

Now Sheth believes Dortmund are keen to work towards another deadline, even though the Bundesliga club are relaxed about the situation.
"We reported on Saturday on Sky Sports News that a second offer had gone in from Manchester United worth a little over £75million but more upfront, plus achievable add-ons," Sheth said on Sky Sports News.
"That's in the form of appearances, goals maybe even silverware as well.
"That bid we understand is still under consideration, it hasn't been accepted or it hasn't been rejected by Borussia Dortmund.

"But the noises coming out of Germany suggest Dortmund will not budge on what we believe to be around £82million, with the majority of that front-loaded.
"If you remember last summer, Dortmund set a deadline for a deal to be done but Manchester United were not prepared to pay £108m.
"They didn't want to be subject to any kind of deadline and this time it seems a little bit more relaxed.
"There is no public declaration but it is thought that Dortmund will want the sorted one way or another by July 23.

"That's when they will go on a pre-season training camp and that's the deadline that they set last summer as well."
Sancho wants to return to England and would prefer to join United.
He has already agreed personal terms with the Red Devils meaning the club just need to agree on a fee with Dortmund.
Once that has been finalised, the wheels will be in motion for Sancho's move to Old Trafford but for now he remains focused on Euro 2020 with England.
