Jadon Sancho is having to be patient. It may be a few weeks before he is able to take to the field as a Borussia Dortmund player.
As a 17-year-old, there are a few extra bureaucratic hoops for Sancho and his club to jump through before he is granted a playing permit.
Until FIFA have confirmed that Dortmund's pedagogical facilities are up to scratch, Sancho will be stuck on the sidelines.
Not that that will worry Dortmund too much.
