3 Potential destinations for Jadon Sancho this summer

Liverpool

Potentially split?

From one of City's oldest rivals to one of their newest ones, Liverpool is another club that has been linked heavily with Sancho in the aftermath of the latest revelations.

An important part of building a club successfully in the long-term is not only knowing when to buy but also when to sell players. Given how well Liverpool are run at the moment, one can be sure that the owners and boardroom, will be acutely aware of this, and will have communicated the same to Jurgen Klopp and his coaching staff. Both Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane will be 28 years old next summer, and Liverpool will have a decision to make; sell one or both of them for a potential world-record fee, or keep them and risk losing out on Sancho.

Essentially, Liverpool have to decide whether to sign Sancho now or risk waiting for another year or two, by which time he could move on from Dortmund, making it tougher to sign him. And herein lies the dilemma. If they sign him now, he would demand a starting berth, and would not be content with a spot on the bench. This would mean that they would have to offload Mane or Salah, which is potentially risky, given how well they fit into the side.

All in all, if Liverpool is keen on forcing this move through, it could lead to them losing one of their star players, or, conversely, if they choose not to do so, they may lose out on a fantastic prospect. Whichever way they lean, we could be in for a big summer.
