Ole Gunnar Solskjaer reacts after Dortmund pull plug on Jadon Sancho transfer

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer remained coy over top transfer target Jadon Sancho. Borussia Dortmund insisting the player would no longer be permitted to complete a transfer this summer, after they set a deadline of August 10 but no official offer was tabled. The Bundesliga travelled to their Switzerland training camp yesterday with Sancho part of the travelling squad. Michael Zorc, Dortmund's sporting director, insisted that meant the England international would remain with his club for the 2020/21 campaign. After United beat Copenhagen to reach the Europa League semi-finals last night, Solskajer fielded questions on what it meant that the deadline to complete a move for Sancho had passed. "I can't comment on other team's players, I can't do that," the Norwegian said. "You know that. I never do." Dortmund chief Zorc warned that there was no way his side would be pressured into letting their star winger leave. "We plan on having Jadon Sancho in our team this season, the decision is final," he said. "I think that answers all our questions," Zorc told reporters on Monday. He added: "Last summer, we adjusted Jadon's salary to match the development of his performances. So in context, we had already extended his contract until 2023 back then." Source: Express
