Premier League-linked Sancho needs to stay at Dortmund for now, says.former coach Heinrich

Jadon Sancho needs to resist the lure of the likes of Manchester United and Liverpool to continue his development at Borussia Dortmund, according to the club's former assistant coach Jorg Heinrich.

The former Manchester City youth player has been linked with a return to the Premier League after starring in the Bundesliga for BVB - and for England on the international stage - over the past 12 months.

Heinrich, a Champions League winner with Dortmund in 1996-97, believes Sancho is arguably the most exciting player in world football right now, but feels that he would be better off staying with the German giants in the short term as the rumours around his future continue to swirl.
