Jadon Sancho to Chelsea: Borussia Dortmund ace drops big hint about future plans in FIFA 20 team

Borussia Dortmund forward Jadon Sancho is one of the most exciting youngsters in world football, having risen to prominence in the last few years with his performances in Germany, the Champions League and for England.

His decision to leave Manchester City in search of regular football in 2017 certainly paid off.

His exciting performances have seen him linked with some of the biggest clubs in England, with the likes of Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool all having been linked with him at some point, but there has been no hint so far about where he might end up, until now.

Sancho is reportedly a keen gamer and has even been used as one of the cover stars of EA SPORTS FIFA 20, featuring on screenshots, menu screens and advertisements.

In the FIFA 20 Ultimate Team game mode, gamers can create their own custom squads featuring some of the best players in the world, even customising their kits, ball, stadium, manager, tactics and many more.

And, if you're a professional football player, you are given a turquoise coloured card of yourself, which is 99-rated and has maxed out attributes!

And it looks like a lucky Reddit user has even had the pleasure of playing against Jadon Sancho on FIFA 20's most popular mode, judging by this post.

As you would expect, Sancho has got an incredible team, with the likes of N'Golo Kante, Virgil van Dijk, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Ronaldo, Pele, Ronaldinho, James Maddison, Aymeric Laporte, Alisson and...Danny Rose.

But, if you look closely, despite having all the managers in the world to choose from, Sancho has chosen to have Chelsea boss Frank Lampard in charge of his side.

Sancho has previously stated that Lampard and fellow Chelsea legend Didier Drogba weer inspirations to him when he was growing up and this could be a nod to that, or it could be a hint about what he wants for the future.

One thing's for sure, Sancho is going to be hot property in 2020.
