BVB youth supremo Ricken: We're scouting next Sancho

Borussia Dortmund are ready to raid the Premier League again in order to find the next Jadon Sancho.

The Bundesliga club lured Sancho, 18, away from Manchester City in the summer of 2017 and he has since developed into hottest prospects in world football.

And Dortmund youth chief Lars Ricken says the club are looking for their next young English star.

"Would we take another Sancho from England? Of course," Ricken told Standard Sport.

"Our scouting department, not only in Dortmund but other clubs as well, although especially in Dortmund, they are so good and professional that we know each talented player all over Europe, maybe in the world.

"We know them and we have the financial strength to buy the players as well.

"Each club wants to find their own Sancho or [Christian] Pulisic. I think our supporters are very proud of players like Jadon Sancho, because he is a very young player. Each club in the world is jealous of us because we have Sancho."
