Jadon Malik Sancho (born 25 March 2000) is an English professional footballer who plays as a winger for Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund and the England national team. He was previously a youth player with Watford and Manchester City. Sancho was part of the squad that won the 2017 FIFA U-17 World Cup.
Sancho was born in Camberwell, London to parents from Trinidad and Tobago. He was raised in Kennington.
Sancho joined Watford at the age of seven. At the age of 14, Sancho moved to Manchester City in March 2015 for an initial fee of £66,000 under the EPPP which could rise to £500,000 with add ons. Sancho continued to impress in the Manchester City academy and was one of a trio of players that the Manchester City chairman, Khaldoon Al Mubarak, said would be fast tracked into the senior set up in May 2017. In July 2017, Sancho was omitted from Manchester City's pre-season tour squad due to a dispute over assurances of playing time in a new contract. It was subsequently reported that Sancho was attempting to force a move away from the club.
