Borussia Dortmund are determined to keep Jadon Sancho for the rest of the season and resist selling the England international in the January transfer window.

The 19-year-old is admired at Liverpool and Manchester United but any return to the Premier League is likely to be at the end of the campaign rather than mid-season.

Sancho has appeared unsettled in the Bundesliga this season and the door appears open to leave Germany after three seasons at Westfalenstadion.

But Dortmund believe January is a difficult window to do business in and it is unlikely to get maximum value for a player valued upwards of £100million.

The German club are meticulous in their transfer planning and signed Thorgan Hazard, Julian Brandt and Nico Schulz for a combined £62.75million days after the end of last season.
