Dortmund target British-Nigerian youngster as Sancho’s replacement

The Bundesliga giants are likely to lose their highly-rated England international, and they’ve identified another youngster to replace him

Borussia Dortmund are looking at PSV youngster Noni Madueke as one of the potential replacements for Jadon Sancho.

Sancho is expected to leave Signal Iduna Park this summer, with Old Trafford the likely destination. Both Manchester United and Borussia Dortmund are currently in negotiations over the transfer of the England international.

And Dortmund have drawn a list of possible replacements for the youngster. According to Ruhr Nachrichten via BVB Buzz, Madueke, who plays his football in the Dutch top-flight, is on the list of potential replacements.

The former Tottenham youth star joined PSV’s youth team in 2019 before moving up to the first team a year later.

Since then, his game has continued to improve. The 19-year-old scored nine times and registered eight assists in 32 games for PSV last season.

Madueke has represented England from the u16 to u21 level, but he qualifies to play for Nigeria at the international level through his parents.
