Barcelona: Five early January transfer targets for the Catalans

3. Jadon Sancho

Club: Borussia Dortmund

Position: Winger

Jadon Sancho is one of England’s brightest prospect in decades. Ever since had made the brave and pioneering move to switch from Manchester City and sign abroad for Borussia Dortmund he has encouraged many other young English talents to follow suit.

The move from Manchester to Germany has been greatly beneficial for Sancho thus far.  The English sensation has been one of the black and yellows best performers over the past couple of seasons and he has earned some vital experience in the process which he would have never been able to get at Manchester City.

At Dortmund, Sancho has blossomed into an elite player in world football and one with incredible skill, pace and vision which makes him a huge threat to opponent defences.

Some reports in the past have linked Sancho with a move to Barcelona and he could be the perfect replacement for Neymar who the Catalans have sought ever since the Brazilian departed the club.

Sancho has similar traits to Neymar with his pace and dribbling and his vision is perhaps even superior to that of the Brazilian superstar. At Barcelona Sancho would thrive playing alongside the likes of Messi, Suarez and Griezmann and he could provide the fire power which the Catalans so vitally need.

Recently there have been reports of Sancho potentially moving away from Dortmund and after the English winger was substituted before half time in Dortmund’s disappointing encounter with Bayern it seems extremely likely that Sancho is looking for a move away from Dortmund perhaps even as early as January.

Barcelona should do everything in their power to secure the services of the Englishman and add him to their already lucrative attack.
