JADON SANCHO has risked the wrath of Bundesliga chiefs after hugging his team-mate in Borussia Dortmund’s win over Wolfsburg.
The England winger was introduced in the 65th minute of the contest and made an instant impact by assisting Achraf Hakimi in the 2-0 victory.

But going against league guidelines to help limit the spread of the coronavirus, the pair embraced after the goal.
The Bundesliga have told players they must not celebrate in close quarters as they opt to take every precaution necessary.
That also includes wearing face masks on the substitute bench and no pre-match handshakes.
Sancho, 20, is likely to get a dressing down and reminded of his responsibilities ahead of Dortmund’s huge clash against Bayern Munich on Tuesday.
A win would move Dortmund just a point behind the current champions with seven games left of the campaign.
Sancho’s assist was his 16th of the season – only Bayern’s Thomas Muller has more.
It was also his 30th goal involvement this campaign matching Barcelona legend Lionel Messi.
And his form will only further escalate the speculation that Manchester United are ready to make a huge money move this summer.

Despite the financial threat of the coronavirus, Dortmund are demanding £100million to leave the ex-Man City academy star leave the club.
Sancho has two seasons left on his deal with the Bundesliga club but are prepared to cash in if the money is right.
Dortmund stand to make a massive profit on the £8m they paid City for Sancho in 2017.
