Jadon Sancho addresses transfer talk as Manchester United and Dortmund negotiate £108m deal

Jadon Sancho has addressed the intense speculation over his future as Manchester United and Borussia Dortmund continue talks over a deal.

Dortmund are demanding £108million for the England winger, who scored 17 goals and provided 17 assists last season.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is determined to sign his no.1 summer target and United are understood to be relaxed about the player returning to training with Dortmund.

Sancho says he tries to ignore rumours about his future and is instead concentrating on getting his fitness back during pre-season.

"I try not to look at the media because I think once you start looking at all that it would be easy to get carried away with it," Sancho told Soccerbible.

"It can affect players. For me it's about not looking at those things and just focusing on trying to do the best I can on the pitch. Especially in training.

"For me it's about improving every single day. It's important for me to keep a smile on my face and keep happy.

"I don't really look at all the noise and all that stuff. I'd rather keep my head down, keep focus and improve every day."
