England and Borussia Dortmund forward Jadon Sancho has revealed that he is not affected by a failed move to Manchester United. The Borussia Dortmund forward stayed at the German club after United could not meet their price.
He has not scored in the league this season but netted in England’s 3-0 win over the Republic of Ireland. He was asked the failed move had an impact on his form, he said: “No, I don’t think so.”
“I feel like every player has a little dip in their career and I’m going through that at the moment.
“It is just how I am bouncing back and I’m just happy to have managers who have faith in me and keep starting me.”
Jadon Sancho has scored in the Champions League and German Cup this season, after scoring 20 domestic goals in 2019-20.
The former Manchester City player also scored 20 assists for Dortmund last season. He made four goal contributions for England.
Sancho, who made his England debut in 2018, said he does not feel burdened by a weight of expectation after an impressive start to his international career.
“I just expect a lot from myself personally,” he said.
“When I play I always try to assist and score and always help the team. A couple of games ago I hadn’t been scoring or assisting but I knew I had a chance.”
