Jadon Sancho: Youngster is ‘amazing to watch’ and ‘going to be a massive player for Man United’
Jadon Sancho can spearhead the charge as Man United look to finish in the top four this season.
That’s according to former Leeds United stopper Paddy Kenny, speaking exclusively to Football Insider about the England star’s resurgence.
Sancho, 21, has scored once and assisted twice in his last three Premier League games.
The former Borussia Dortmund star has struggled to find his best form since moving to Old Trafford in the summer of 2021.
However, Kenny claims Sancho can fire Man United to a top-four finish in the final weeks of the season.
“Sancho has been amazing to watch over the last few weeks,” Kenny told Football Insider correspondent Ben Wild.
“It can take a run of games to get some consistency and some form. I think he has really upped his game in recent weeks.
“He has shone in a poor Man United side where you never know what you are going to get.
“We know he is going to be a massive player for Man United and he can start to push on now. That would be a huge boost for them.
“He is showing why Man United paid a lot of money for him and I think they need a spark of something if they are going to get into that top four.
“Sancho could be the key to that. He’s the one who can get the goals they need.
He needs as much confidence as he can get especially with the World Cup at the end of this year as well.”
Man United are next in action against Watford at Old Trafford on Saturday (26 February).
The Red Devils currently sit fourth in the Premier League.
