There's a saying that 'to discover new Oceans, man must first have the courage to leave the shores' and this maxim best applies in the life of Jadon Sancho, perhaps more than anyone else.

At the tender age of 17 and fearing for his first-team prospects at Manchester City, a young Jadon Sancho took the extremely courageous step of transferring overseas to Borussia Dortmund to seek regular playing time.

This was a move that went against everything associated with English footballers, as rarely do they leave the comforts of the Premier League much less at such a young age.

It has however proved to be a masterstroke by the 18-year-old, as he has become a mainstay in the BVB team under Lucien Favre, establishing himself as an English international and one of the highest rated young players on the planet.

So far this campaign, Sancho has starred with eight goals and 13 assists from 27 Bundesliga matches; the last of which came during the last game week as he provided the pass for Paco Alcacer to score in dramatic last-minute circumstances and send Dortmund back on top of the German top flight.
