PSG are ready to provide the biggest obstacle to Manchester United’s bid to land £120million rated England international Jadon Sancho.

The French giants have made Sancho, 19, their number one target for next summer with doubts surrounding the long-term future of Neymar.

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been eying a move for the former Manchester City starlet since last summer but is now in real danger of missing out.

Sancho is ready to quit Bundesliga outfit Borussia Dortmund after being dropped following a late return from international duty last month.

He was then hauled off after just 36 minutes of last weekend’s 4-0 defeat at the hands of Bayern Munich despite not being injured.

South London born Sancho is currently on duty with Gareth Southgate’s England has been attracting admiring glances from several clubs.

He can count Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp among them while Real Madrid and Juventus have also taken a close look at him in recent months as well.

Dortmund are determined to keep Sancho who took Germany by storm last season until the summer but Solskjaer’s plotting a January move to get a jump on his rivals.

Liverpool legend Dieter Hamann recently opened up on the Reds being interested in the 19-year-old.

"What I hear is that Liverpool have great interest.

"I would imagine that next summer they could become one of the biggest interested parties.

"He's from Manchester City and I do not know if he would come back again, and it's a thing for Manchester United, too, if they've ever been to the rivals."

Sancho has netted four goals and provided eight assists for Dortmund in all competitions this season so far.

The winger will hope to start for England tomorrow when they take on Kosovo having already qualified for Euro 2020.
