Chelsea are emerging as favourites to land Borussia Dortmund attacker Jadon Sancho.

The Sun says Chelsea are working on a £120m deal which could see them splash out a club-record fee on one of the world's brightest young talents.

Manchester United have spent the past year trying to tempt the 19-year-old to Old Trafford believing he could help fire the club back to the pinnacle of European football.

But Frank Lampard's side have emerged as the most likely destination for Sancho after indicating they will meet Borussia Dortmund's huge valuation of the England star.

The Bundesliga club's demands have put off Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool but Chelsea have told the Germans they are prepared to find £100m-plus to make a statement signing.

Frank Lampard has made no secret of his desire to bring in an attacking player he feels will fill the void left by Eden Hazard's departure for Real Madrid.

And Sancho is the player he believes will do that job with Roman Abramovich prepared to back his manager with serious money in the transfer market.
