BORUSSIA DORTMUND have teased Manchester United fans on social media by showing off a training picture of a beaming Jadon Sancho.
The Red Devils have been chasing the England international all year and made him their No1 target.
But with United having failed to agree a deal before Dortmund’s self-imposed deadline of August 10, the Bundesliga side are bullish over their chances of keeping the former Manchester City starlet.
And with Lucien Favre’s team now in the swing of things for pre-season, Sancho is back training with his team-mates – seemingly getting ready for a fourth season in Germany.
Rather than appearing sulky or disappointed at having failed to secure a move to Old Trafford, however, Sancho can instead be seen grinning ear-to-ear in the training snap.
And in a pointed move towards those at United, Dortmund’s official Twitter account captioned the image: “You love to see it”.
The decision is final.
Michael Zorc on Jadon Sancho
Club chief Michael Zorc has insisted that Sancho will be remaining at the club for the season ahead.
He said yesterday: “He’ll play for us next season.
“The decision is final. I think that answers all of the questions.
“Last summer we adjusted the salary to the performance development of Jadon.
“In this context, we have extended the contract until 2023.”
While United still retain hope of landing Sancho, they could turn their attention elsewhere as they aim to recruit a new star winger for next season.
According to the Standard, Bayern Munich wide man Kingsley Coman is on their radar – and the Red Devils could try and secure a loan move for the talented Frenchman.
