Manchester City fear the jewel in their academy Jadon Sancho wants to leave the club.

Sportsmail revealed in March how the club were confident of tying Sancho down to a new three-year deal.

But their are growing concerns at the Etihad that Sancho sees his future elsewhere.

Indeed, City have high hopes for Sancho; a feeling that was underlined earlier this year when discussions over a potentially lucrative new contract got underway.

But despite his obvious talent, the route into City’s senior set-up is littered with obstacles given the number of top attacking players Guardiola has at his disposal.

And concerns over Sancho’s pathway into the first team are understood to be at the root of the doubt over his future.

City will not let Sancho go without a fight but serious fears are emerging over the teenager’s long-term future at the club.
