# Liverpool: Fans unsure about Jadon Sancho amid transfer speculation

**Towards the end of last month, [The Athletic](https://theathletic.co.uk/1403402/2019/11/24/exclusive-jadon-sancho-feels-humiliated-and-scapegoated-by-dortmund-amid-interest-from-barcelona-liverpool-united-and-real/?redirected=1) reported that Liverpool were one of many top European clubs who could be the next home for Borussia Dortmund’s Jadon Sancho.**

And since then, fuel has been added to that speculation, with former footballer [Jan Aage Fjortoft](https://twitter.com/JanAageFjortoft/status/1201463963336216576?s=20) claiming that the Reds are now the favourites to land the 19-year-old — possibly as early as January.

Sancho has been in the headlines for the wrong reasons at times this season, getting dragged off the pitch in the first half in a 4-0 defeat to rivals Bayern Munich and returning late from international duty on one occasion (also per [The Athletic](https://theathletic.co.uk/1403402/2019/11/24/exclusive-jadon-sancho-feels-humiliated-and-scapegoated-by-dortmund-amid-interest-from-barcelona-liverpool-united-and-real/?redirected=1)).

Even so, the England international is still having a pretty good campaign. In the Bundesliga, he has managed to score five goals and assist a further six in just 11 appearances ([via WhoScored](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/346300/Show/Jadon-Sancho)).

Based on that alone, Sancho looks as if he could bring a lot to Jurgen Klopp’s side. Not every Liverpool fan seems convinced, though, with one supporter putting it out there that he would rather see Tottenham’s Son Heung-min join the club.

Take a look at the social media reaction below…

> Jan Sancho is right footed. Liverpool play with inverted wingers. Therefore Liverpool would be buying Sancho to play in Manés position? Makes no sense

> Rather have Son from Spurs any day of the week than Sancho.. Over hyped because he’s an English player.. Curtis Jones already at Liverpool will turn out to be a better player than him too in my opinion.. K

> i feel Liverpool be stupid to get Sancho, yeah we need a back up who can play front 3. we need a guy be happy coming on at 65-70mins most games and a cheaper option so we can upgrade in other key area.
