Soccer Rising Stars: Jadon Sancho

One of Britain’s most promising right-wingers, Jadon Sancho has made his mark abroad rather than in the Premier League. At just 17 years old, Jadon made the bold move not to sign with English juggernaut, Manchester City. He instead became a breakout success in the German Bundesliga with Borussia Dortmund. An undeniable talent, from London five-a-sides to the pro ranks and international fanfare, Jadon’s stellar soccer journey has only just begun.
