Since after finally joining Manchester United, Jadon Sancho has been dubbed the "best winger in the world."
After a lengthy transfer saga, United announced the signing of Sancho from Dortmund on Friday afternoon.
The 21-year-old cost £73 million and will need to produce some outstanding performances to recoup his investment, which Didi Hamann believes he will.
The former Manchester City player has completed his transfer less than a fortnight after missing a penalty in England's Euro 2020 final defeat to Italy.
Last summer, United attempted to sign Sancho but were unable to reach an agreement. After backup goalkeeper Tom Heaton, he is the club's second signing for the 2021-22 season.
"From what I've seen of him in the Bundesliga, he helps other players by generating chances and pulling defenders out of position, and we saw indications of that in England's quarter-final win over Ukraine."

" He said, "I was surprised that he was on the outskirts of that tournament; as a manager, he would be my first option."
Sancho, in my opinion, is not just England's best winger, but also the world's best winger, and United fans should be excited about his return to Manchester.
Sancho said on United's website, “I'll always be grateful to Dortmund for providing me the opportunity to play first-team football, even though I always knew I'd return to England one day”. “Playing for Manchester United is a dream come true for me, and I can't wait to make an impact in the Premier League.”
This is a youthful and energetic team, and I am certain that by working together, we will be able to develop into something special and give the fans the success they deserve.

As a result, his goals and assists numbers speak for themselves. Old Trafford will give him the platform he needs to reach his full potential and play at the highest level.
United were intrigued during Jose Mourinho's tenure as manager, and a return to England has been on the cards for some time.
Sancho has been signed by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who is ecstatic to work with the youngster.
"He told United's official website, "We've tracked him and decided to go for him, and ultimately we made the breakthrough and got the deal done." He's got the genes for thrilling and engaging audiences, and he's also a winner. He wants to win; therefore that's what we'll do next.
"We believe he can aid us in taking the next step." Unanimity: Of course, we'll keep providing him with opportunity to grow as a person throughout his life. “It’s not like you have to show everything in your first game; we've seen so many times with our players that when you play for Manchester United, you progressively improve as a player with the support of the coaching staff and the Old Trafford platform."
