Sancho had been linked with Arsenal earlier in the window, in particular due to his connection to best friend Reiss Nelson, but now it’s being reported that Manchester City have agreed a £170k deal with Borussia Dortmund.

Sancho reportedly became unsettled earlier in the summer with concerns about playing time, and made his decision to try and leave the club after being left out of Pep Guardiola’s squad for the Manchester City pre-season tour.

This led to the player spending most of August refusing to train with City, as he tried to force a move away. Sancho had hinted in the past that he could be set for a move to London through his posts on social media.

However, it’s been claimed that City only allowed him to speak to foreign clubs. Therefore, it appears the door was closed on a move to London and potentially Arsenal despite Nelson and Sancho’s good relationship. Arsenal’s loss could be Dortmund’s gain.
