The transfer of Jadon Sancho appears to be the talk of this summer’s window already.
However, a player who swapped the Bundesliga for the Premier League, in particular, Manchester United is Owen Hargreaves.
The England midfielder struggled to stay fit at United. But he was still part of the team that won three league titles as well as a Champions League.
He sees Sancho’s potential move to Old Trafford as a perfect partnership.
Speaking to BT Sports, he feels that a move to the Red Devils will only help catapult Sancho to the next just on a team level, but on a personal level too.
He said: “United have an exceptionally good group of young players coming through and any top young player would want to be part of that.”
“A lot of people feel that young players will take time to develop.”
“But if you look at players like Wayne Rooney and Jadon now, the great ones, the exceptional ones, figure it out.”
“United would still be a team to join. Man United will be back and the recruitment of a player like Jadon would help.”
“He knows Manchester well because he was at City, but whoever gets him will be very fortunate.”
“I know Sancho is going to cost a lot of money, but you have a player who, potentially for the next decade, is going to be a unique player to watch.”
“Can he become a Ballon d’Or winner? Yes, because potentially he is off the charts.”
