German giants Borussia Dortmund are prepared to make a shock move for Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho in January.

The Englishman has fallen out-of-favour under Erik ten Hag, and he recently criticised the manager’s comments over him after the Arsenal game.

Ten Hag said that Sancho was left out of the squad due to his poor attitude in training, but this was dismissed by the attacker with a statement.

There are now doubts over his long-term future at United, and The Sun claim that Dortmund could swoop for his services in the New Year.

The Bundesliga outfit are likely to propose a short-term loan deal, but will need to cover the majority of his current £300,000-a-week salary.

Sancho was on the radar of Saudi giant Al-Ettifaq recently, but a loan deal did not materialise after United asked for a mandatory buy clause.

Ten Hag is open to reintegrating the player into the squad, but he is now behind Alejandro Garnacho and Facundo Pellistri in the pecking order.
