brizzlelou Posted September 3, 2017 Report Share Posted September 3, 2017 Never heard of this kid before Dortmund signed him but my word! What a prospect he looks to be! Really excited by the future crop of talent that seem to emerging recently. Also good to see a lot of youngsters spreading their wings abroad. Amongst all the doom and gloom of the current national side its good to see some glimmers of hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cunnyfunt Posted September 3, 2017 Report Share Posted September 3, 2017 Already has the #7 shirt. Hopefully more kids will take his lead.. get out of the bubble at home, think less of the money and become all round better players. Can only be a good thing.

Also see that Dortmund paid 6.5m for him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

22A Posted September 3, 2017 Report Share Posted September 3, 2017 It was mentioned on the radio that Dortmund claimed this boy is 12 years old and fielded him in their under 15s. He was so good they moved him into the under 17s. Opposing teams reckon he's older than 12, but Dortmund insist he can only be 12 as his Mother is only 28.

He's listed as being 17 online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

42nite Posted September 3, 2017 Report Share Posted September 3, 2017 Easier said than done I know. But going on that video....... if I was playing against him as a right back, I'd do my darndest to show him down the line! He'd probably leave me flat on my arse more than once, but I would do all I could to stop him getting inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know he's going to cut inside... just a matter of when! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1bristolcity Posted September 3, 2017 Report Share Posted September 3, 2017 Right footed left winger, can cut in at will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
View from the Dolman Posted September 3, 2017 Report Share Posted September 3, 2017 Question marks over his character though - going AWOL from training at Manchester City. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2017/08/30/manchester-city-left-baffled-asteenage-winger-jadon-sancho-goes/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
formerly known as ivan Posted September 3, 2017 Report Share Posted September 3, 2017 Will be given more opportunity to progress with Dortmund than he would at any other top club in this country. Good luck to him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheddarReds Posted September 3, 2017 Report Share Posted September 3, 2017 Huge opportunity for him, 100% he'll get game time at a top club in Germany. Wouldn't be surprised if he's a top player for our country by 20. Be interesting to see how Chris Willock gets on at Benfica after leaving Arsenal this summer too. I expect both to do fairly well and a few other youngsters to follow suit. Perhaps it's what it takes for some of the thriving academies here to give youngsters a chance rather than churn them over for profit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcusX Posted September 3, 2017 Report Share Posted September 3, 2017 His agility and speed in changing direction is frighteningly quick. There isn't any current English player that does what he can there - however be interesting to see him play against more component defenders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
