MANCHESTER UNITED expect to complete the signing of Jadon Sancho but need to stump up a bit more money first, reports say.
SunSport revealed that the Red Devils have agreed personal terms with Borussia Dortmund’s superstar winger.
But the clubs remain apart in terms of valuation for the 21-year-old England international.
Manchester Evening News report that United are £8.5million shy of Dortmund’s valuation.
The report states that Dortmund are believed to want £6m more up front and £2.5m in add-ons on top of what United are currently offering.
Man Utd have made a £72m bid to land Sancho this summer, and are prepared to go up to £80m.
Personal terms based on a five-year deal worth £350,000-a-week have already been agreed.
The Red Devils have been after Sancho for a while and thought they had their man last summer.
But they refused to meet Dortmund’s asking price of £110m back then.
Sancho has thrived at Dortmund after spending his youth career with Watford and then Manchester City.

In his last two seasons in the Bundesliga he has hit 36 goals and provided 40 assists in 82 games.
But he has only played six minutes of England’s three Euros group games so far, coming on as a sub against Czech Republic.
Sancho has 20 England caps but has scored three times for his country.
