Manchester United are pressing ahead with plans to sign Borussia Dortmund winger Jadon Sancho.

The Sun says United and Borussia Dortmund are close to an agreement for the £100million-rated winger who wants to move to the Premier League and Old Trafford.

Boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer still wants to bolster his attacking options as he bids to build a squad to match that of his own glory filled playing days.

Solskjaer was one of the attacking riches Sir Alex Ferguson had to pick from — with Dwight Yorke, Andy Cole and Teddy Sheringham — during the 1998-99 Treble season.

Ex-Manchester City youth player Sancho, 20, fits Solskjaer's plans for a young vibrant team going into the future.

Sancho hit 17 goals and provided 16 assists in the Bundesliga as Dortmund finished runners-up to Bayern Munich.
