According to the Daily Mirror, Jadon Sancho is not the only Man Utd player that the Champions League finalists are hoping to buy.

Indeed, Dortmund also wish to sign Sancho’s exiled Man Utd teammate Mason Greenwood.

Sancho could play an important role in convincing Greenwood - who is unlikely to have a future at Old Trafford - in moving to Dortmund.

Sancho joined Dortmund on loan during the January transfer market as he he returned to the club that he left in 2021.

The English winger has been in outstanding form for Dortmund, a far cry from the dismal performances he showed at Old Trafford.

Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl has confirmed that the club want to sign Manchester United flop Jadon Sancho permanently.

The big sticking point is whether Dortmund and Man Utd can agree on a fee.

Greenwood to leave Man Utd?

Greenwood is expected to leave Manchester United this summer.

He joined Getafe on loan last summer after Manchester United concluded their investigation into the criminal charges he was facing last year, which have since been dropped.

United announced that Greenwood would look to continue his career away from Old Trafford, having not played a game since January 2022 following his arrest by police.

New Man Utd part-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe revealed earlier this year that a decision has still not been made on whether to bring the on-loan Getafe attacker back to United at the end of the season.

Greenwood has impressed for Getafe. He has scored 10 goals and got six assists in 35 games in all competitions.

But sentiment among fans and the public in England is still negative towards Greenwood, meaning it seems unlikely he could possibly play again for United or for any Premier League club soon.

Greenwood has also attracted interest from Serie A clubs such as Juventus and Napoli, as well as Spanish side Barcelona.
