Man Utd ‘most serious contender’ for Sancho signing says expert
Liverpool should target Jadon Sancho ahead of both Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland, according to former Reds striker Emile Heskey. Borussia Dortmund winger Sancho is linked with a host of Europe's top clubs following another fine season in the Bundesliga. The England star has built a reputation as one of the hottest properties around.
Haaland, 19, joined Sancho at Dortmund in January and has continued his goalscoring form which earned him a move to Signal Iduna Park.
Meanwhile, Paris Saint-Germain forward Mbappe has continued the astonishing start to his career, scoring 30 goals in all competitions this season before Ligue 1 was cancelled due to the coronavirus.
But when asked which of the trio would be best suited to Liverpool, Heskey chose Sancho as he would suit the Reds' style of play more.
"I’d choose Sancho for Liverpool, out of the three," Heskey told Genting Bet.

"Haaland is up there with Mbappe and Sancho and when it comes to potential and you look at goals, he’s up there with the best of them," he added.
"This is what you go off sometimes, especially as a young lad, he will only grow bigger, confidence-wise, he’ll only get wiser with the way that he plays and he’ll only get cuter with the way that he finishes.
"The sky is the limit, so it’s up to him to keep that momentum going, because it’s not easy to keep it going."
