Sancho has excelled since moving to Germany

He has since established himself as one of the brightest young players in world football and has already debuted for the Three Lions, but recent allegations have raised questions over Sancho’s Vicarage Road exit.Der Spiegel, the German news outlet, published leaked documents which appear to show City paying Sancho’s agent, Emeka Obasi, 200,000 in relation to the transfer, and giving him a scouting contract to conceal the payment.The fee appeared under the heading ‘Agent Fee’ in an internal club table concerning Sancho’s move, despite FA and FIFA rules prohibiting players under the age of 16 from having agents. Sancho was 14 at the time of his move. “We can confirm that we will be investigating the allegations,” a Football Association spokesperson told The Times.The leaks were published byDer Spiegel earlier this month and City responded with a statement in which they claimed there was an ‘organised’ attempt to damage the club’s reputation.2
