Tottenham Hotspur will face Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League round of 16.

One of the key dangermen will be winger Jadon Sancho, if he ends the transfer window still at Dortmund.

Sancho has been a sensation at Dortmund this season. He has scored six goals already and provided eight assists.

His form has seen Premier League clubs sit up and take notice.

The Mirror reported in October that Liverpool and Manchester United are showing an interest, with Tottenham’s name thrown in too.

The report claims Dortmund would want around £100 million for the England international.

This would rule Spurs out of the bidding, but it may not stop a club like Manchester United paying a record fee for him.

The Champions League draw has given Sancho’s future new significance for Spurs.

Sancho may be out of their price range, but if a rivals pays up for him in January, then Tottenham’s task in the Champions League will be easier.

In the event Sancho does stay put, the ties against Tottenham will certainly have Premier League scouts flocking to see him in action as they assess whether to recommend their clubs splash out..
