Manchester United are so desirous of signing Borussia Dortmund star Jadon Sancho in this summer's transfer window.
The Red Devils and Dortmund have agreed to go about Sancho negotiations in a âmore respectful mannerâ, reports say.
United have already signed Donny van de Beek. And theyâre hoping the 20-year-old will follow the Dutchman to Old Trafford this summer.
Now, with Champions League football to offer, Ole Gunnar Solskjaerâs side are hopeful theyâll be able to bring the England international to the club this summer.
And according to Bleacher Report, United and the German side have agreed to approach negotiations in a more ârespectful mannerâ.
Itâs claimed that the Old Trafford outfit felt that too much was being leaked during the early stages of the Sancho deal and, as a result, felt pressured into meeting demands they werenât happy with.
United are said to be working on wage demands and agent fees.
And the £72m Chelsea are paying for Bayer Leverkusenâs Kai Haertz will be used as a guide to how much the deal for Sancho should be worth.
The report concludes by saying the deal âcould still happenâ.
Meanwhile, former United star Darren Fletcher recently opened up on Sancho and admitted the winger âticks all the boxesâ for Solskjaerâs side.
He told The Metro: âAt his young age, to be doing what heâs doing at that level of football is fantastic and thereâs no doubt that he has got a bright future in the game.
âItâs clearly a position that Manchester United, I feel, have needed for a number of years now, somebody who naturally wants to play off that right-hand side.
âSo, I think that it ticks all the boxes in that respect but â at the same time â these transfers are very, very difficult.
âLarge sums of money in these times, thereâs a lot of circumstances involved in it.
âItâs not just Jadon Sancho and his representatives, itâs Borussia Dortmund, itâs Manchester United and Iâm sure there will be other clubs interested in him as well.
