TBR’s View:

Sancho’s future is certainly set to be one of the most talked about topics of conversations leading up to the summer and where he ends up is unclear at this stage.

But the right-winger is superb talent producing outrageous individual numbers for Dortmund and they are well within their right to demand an enormous fee for him.

Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool already have superb attacking options and the trio of Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane are recognised as the best collective frontline in the world.

It would be a massive task to try improve that attack, but there is no doubt that rising star Sancho would be a marquee addition at Anfield and make them even stronger.
