MANCHESTER: Manchester United has completed the transfer of England winger Jadon Sancho from Bundesliga team Borussia Dortmund, the Premier League club announced on Friday. The two clubs had reached an agreement for the transfer earlier this month, with Dortmund saying United would pay 85 million euros ($100 million) for the 21-year-old.

"I'll always be grateful to Dortmund for giving me the opportunity to play first team football, although I always knew that I would return to England one day," Sancho, a former youth player at United's rivals Manchester City, told the club's website. "The chance to join Manchester United is a dream come true and I just cannot wait to perform in the Premier League."

Sancho emerged as United's number one transfer target last year but the clubs could not agree on a fee. Agencies
