Bundesliga star prefers move to Manchester United over Chelsea - Reports

Borussia Dortmund winger Jadon Sancho reportedly favors a move to Manchester United over Chelsea. The England international has a gentleman's agreement with Borussia Dortmund over a move away from the club this summer and has therefore been linked with a move to Old Trafford and Stamford Bridge.

According to The Athletic, Manchester United have the edge over Chelsea in the race for the signature of Jadon Sancho as the player prefers to join the Red Devils.

Jadon Sancho has been a top transfer target for Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer since last summer. The Red Devils had reportedly agreed personal terms with the winger but refused to match Dortmund's £108 million valuation of the Manchester City youth product.

Sancho endured a poor start to the season after his Manchester United move fell off. But after starting slowly, he regained his form at the turn of the year and finished the season with eight goals and twelve assists in 26 Bundesliga appearances for Borussia Dortmund.

Manchester United have now resumed their pursuit of Sancho. The Red Devils finished second in the Premier League this season and believe the signing of Sancho will make them title contenders next season.

Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel is reportedly interested in the Borussia Dortmund star as well. Chelsea, however, have a number of wingers and attacking midfielders in their squad, and could therefore cool down their interest in the 21-year-old.

Manchester United remain in talks with Jadon Sancho's representatives over a potential transfer this summer.

Jadon Sancho looks set to play a key role for Gareth Southgate's England side at the 2020 European Championship this summer.

Manchester United will be keen to complete the signing of the Borussia Dortmund star before the commencement of the tournament. That will rule out the chance of Jadon Sancho's market value increasing if he impresses for England at the Euros.
