Manchester United have signed England winger Jadon Sancho from Borussia Dortmund, the Premier League club announced Friday. "The chance to join Manchester United is a dream come true and I just cannot wait to perform in the Premier League," the 21-year-old added. His move to Old Trafford follows a year-long pursuit by United, who were reportedly put off at first by Dortmund's 100m valuation of Sancho, a former Manchester City youth team player. "Jadon epitomises the type of player I want to bring to the club, he is a forward player in the best traditions of Manchester United," said Solskjaer. Sancho is United's second pre-season signing after reserve goalkeeper Tom Heaton joined on a two-year contract earlier this month.
