Chelsea, Man Utd target Sancho explains committing to new BVB contract

Jadon Sancho had no hesitation signing a new contract with Borussia Dortmund.

The England midfielder has been linked with Chelsea, Tottenham, Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal and former club Manchester City.

But the 18-year-old instead extended his contract with Borussia Dortmund to 2022.

"You can see it right now, I play a lot here. It is important for young players to develop. You never know what's going on in the future, but I'm really happy right now," he told BILD.

Dortmund's sports director Michael Zorc expects to keep Sancho long-term.

"I'm pretty sure Jadon will play with us for a long time," he added.
