Jadon Sancho has enjoyed a meteoric rise in his career at Borussia Dortmund in the space of four years since leaving England.
The young English winger had a phenomenal stint in the Bundesliga delivering goals, assists, and breaking records whilst ensuring that his name is in the mix when talking about the most enterprising wingers in the world.
Fast forward to today, the 21-year-old winger has joined Manchester United alongside erstwhile Real Madrid centre-back, Rafael Varane, in the same window.
The arrival of both Sancho and Varane has greatly amplified the expectations and hope of the United faithful for a successful season.
As has been echoed by analysts, enthusiasts, and readers of the game, it’s pretty impressive when a player in the mould of Sancho is brought on board to intensify United’s attacking threat while Varane’s presence in the defense rubs off positively on the whole team.
Therefore, how important will Sancho’s creativity influence United’s attack for a greater cause?
It’s evident that with the kind of players Solskjaer has at his disposal, it should be extremely difficult for him to fail, at least on paper. Thus, the whole squad must be at the same level of performance to truly deliver trophies this season.
With the Norwegian himself having declared that Sancho is one of the most creative forwards in Europe today, it will therefore be expected that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer deploys Sancho to truly unlock his immense potential.
“Jadon is at the start of his career, but still very experienced. Going to Borussia Dortmund as early as he did, he’s developed fantastically and is one of the most creative forwards in European football.”
“He’s so smooth, scores goals, creates goals. Very excited to see him and hope we can help him develop his career.”
Sancho will offer incisive dribbling, silky close control, and pace to the Red Devils’ attack. And although he was only handed 15 minutes off the bench on his debut against Leeds, he showed enough promise of his abilities.
Sancho’s qualities will lift the performances of whoever leads United’s attack which will possibly be either Anthony Martial or Edinson Cavani for the most part of United’s campaign. This is a particularly devastating prospect given the way United swept apart Leeds 5-1 on the opening day of the Premier League season.
With Paul Pogba delivering a stunning four-assist showing and Bruno Fernandes reminding of his class with a hattrick, the sky’s the limit for United’s frontline.
He boasts the trickery, speed, and sheer athleticism that goes in tandem with his incredible technique, vision, and key decision-making. Man United’s attack is set to stun the rest of England for the most part of the season.
