Jadon Sancho addresses his future amid Chelsea and Manchester United transfer links

Jadon Sancho insists he is focusing on his football rather than any transfer links to other clubs.

The England international was heavily linked with a move from Borussia Dortmund to Manchester United this summer but the two clubs failed to agree a deal in time.

Chelsea have also been credited with an interest in the attacker.

Yet, in an interview with Soccer Bible, Sancho says speculation is not something he pays much attention to.

They asked: "There’s always talk of moves linking you with Premier League clubs. Do you ever wish that would just go away?"

Sancho replied: "No, the media’s the media.

"They’re always going to try and create a story, but this is how you manage it.

"For me, I just focus on my football. I just want to do what’s best for my team and win titles at the end of the day."

One of the key reasons Sancho stayed at Dortmund this summer was due to the Bundesliga's £100million valuation of him.

Whilst the 20-year-old says it is nice to be talked about in those terms, he does not place much of an emphasis on how much he is valued at.

He said: "I guess it’s a nice feeling to be worth so much, but again, I don’t really look at it that much.

"For me it’s about doing well for my team and doing well for myself as well.

"When I have a bad game I’m just down. I feel bad about myself.

"So I always like having a good game and showing people what I can do. I know what I can do, and if I play bad then I’m just annoyed with myself.

"Next game I’ll try and improve on whatever I’ve done wrong."
