'If Sancho's happy to sit on Liverpool's bench he should come!' - Barnes issues warning over £100m transfer

John Barnes has welcomed the prospect of Jadon Sancho arriving at Liverpool this summer, but says the Borussia Dortmund star would have to be content with a bit-part role in Jurgen Klopp's side at this stage of his career.

Sancho is currently enjoying another superb season with Dortmund, helping the team fight for the Bundesliga title and success in the Champions League.

The 19-year-old has racked up 34 appearances across all competitions, scoring 17 goals, while attracting plenty more attention from some of the world's biggest clubs.
