'Sancho will return to Premier League' - Freund

Jadon Sancho will be playing in the Premier League "in the next three or four years", according to former Borussia Dortmund midfielder Steffen Freund, who encouraged other young English players to follow the winger's example by making their name in the Bundesliga.

England international Sancho, winner of the Goal NxGn, honed his skills at Watford and Manchester City's academies before joining Dortmund for €8.7million (£7.5m/$9.8m) in August 2017 and has since emerged as one of Europe's hottest prospects.

He made his England debut in October 2018 and has scored eight goals in 27 Bundesliga appearances this season, making himself a transfer target for some of the world's biggest clubs.
