Liverpool among “hottest candidates” for Jadon Sancho as Dortmund plan to sell in January
Borussia Dortmund are reportedly prepared to sell Jadon Sancho, with Liverpool among the clubs most interested in the England international. The Reds were unsuccessful in an informal pursuit of Sancho back 2017, when the teenager opted to leave Man City to join Dortmund in a deal worth around £8 million. Initially, the move paid off for both parties, as the player was given an early platform to showcase his phenomenal talent, while the club were rewarded with 13 goals and 23 assists in 55 games across his first two seasons. But while he has contributed six goals and nine assists in just 18 outings so far this campaign, there has been major discontent at the Westfalenstadion. He was suspended by Dortmund in October after returning late from England duty, while Lucien Favre dropped him to the bench for Wednesday’s 3-1 loss to Barcelona—a game in which he scored after coming off the bench—explaining that he needed “players on the pitch who are focused and ready.”

Watch Jurgen Klopp’s pre-match press conference – Liverpool vs. Brighton
Jurgen Klopp is confident Liverpool can cope without the presence of influential midfielder Fabinho after injury ruled out the Brazil international until the new year. The PA news agency understands the 26-year-old, who has started 18 of 19 matches this season, could be sidelined for between six to eight weeks with ankle ligament damage sustained in Wednesday’s 1-1 Champions League draw with Napoli. A six-week absence would rule him out of 11 matches in the most congested period of the season, but Klopp believes the options they have means they can absorb his loss, despite his record of having never been on the losing side in all 32 Premier League matches he has started. “Losing a player with the quality of Fabinho is big, massive, really bad. But we are not the only team in the Premier League with injuries,” he said. “We have solutions for the position, we have to replace him, we can replace him, we have played without him, we have played good without him.”
