And Old Trafford chiefs are still chasing a deal even though the Bundesliga side insist on a £108million fee.
Dortmund chief Michael Zorc said last month the 20-year-old’s move looked off because United had missed the deadline to sign him.
But the Daily Mail claim the Red Devils will go back in for Sancho.
First, though, they will “sort out the salary and fees of intermediaries” before presenting an official bid.
They say that Sancho’s agent is understood to be Emeka Obasi of the Elite Project Group agency.
Arsenal stars Bukayo Saka and Eddie Nketiah are among the other players signed to the group.
United have been stung by whopping agent fees before.
Paul Pogba’s return to United for £89m in 2016 was said to have netted his agent Mino Raiola a cool £40m.
SunSport told you how United have been left frustrated by the player’s representatives as well as Dortmund’s refusal to deal with them directly.
The German club appointed an agent as an intermediary – who is said to have rejected an offer of £70m rising to £110m based on honours and appearances.
Still, Solskjaer will not give up until England star Sancho publicly claims he wants to stay at Dortmund.
Lucien Favre believes Sancho will remain in Germany and it is believed the only way a deal will go through is if the winger pushes for it.
