DIMITAR BERBATOV BELIEVES THREE MAN UTD STARS WOULD GET IN TEAM AHEAD OF JADON SANCHO
Dimitar Berbatov, who spent four years at Old Trafford, believes Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford and Daniel James would make first-team football difficult for Sancho.
Dimitar Berbatov doesn't believe Jadon Sancho should join Manchester United just yet because he wouldn't walk into the first team.
The Bulgarian, who spent four years at Old Trafford, believes Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford and Daniel James would make first-team football difficult for Sancho.
Ed Woodward has made the Dortmund forward his number one target ahead of the summer transfer window.
The young England international could set United back as much as £100million, and Berbatov isn't convinced this is money worth paying - just yet.
Berbatov told Betfair: "Sancho is unbelievable, he has 14 goals and 15 assists, it is unbelievable. It speaks volumes about the way he is developing, the speed, the goals, the passing and his eye for the pass.
He isn't selfish; if you have 15 assists it must be because you play the ball whenever you have the chance and someone is in a better position.
I don't know if now is the right time for him to go to Manchester United, I have mentioned it before, I have my doubts here because at United there's Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford and Daniel James.
"It's good to have competition for the team but I would imagine if he moves to a new place he would want to play every game, but rotation is a common thing now in football.
From that point of view, you can't guarantee a player will play, but I think we need to go with that assumption, big money and he would like to play.
"For me, he is going to choose the team that he knows he is going to play. Not to move and do nothing because that is going to stop his development and that why I think it may be better for him to stay at Dortmund for one more year, why not?"
