'Better than Kai Havertz' - Chelsea fans react to Jadon Sancho's latest Dortmund performance

Jadon Sancho earned some mixed reviews during Borussia Dortmund's 1-0 win away to Fortuna Dusseldorf which meant that Lucien Favre's team cling on to the slimmest hopes of overhauling Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga title race.

The Bavarians are in action at home to Borussia Monchengladbach in Saturday's evening kick-off and would pull seven points clear with three games remaining should they win.

Erling Haaland, who returned from injury as a substitute, scored in the fourth minute of added time to earn Dortmund a win that also seals their place in next season's Champions League, should it go ahead.

Sancho, however, split opinions among fans with some comparing the England international to former Blue Eden Hazard, some saying he is better than Bayer Leverkusen's Kai Havertz and a couple suggesting that he is not worth the £120million transfer fee Dortmund are look for.

Chelsea are keen on Havertz having also tracked Sancho closely. They are close to sealing a £53million deal to sign Timo Werner from RB Leipzig in the coming weeks.

This is what some of the fans on social media made of Sancho's performance.
