Manchester United are demanding a clause NOT be included in Jadon Sancho's deal with Borussia Dortmund.
The two clubs have agreed the outline of a loan deal for the England winger.
However, the transfer hinges on United's demand that the move is a straight loan and will not include an option to buy.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano is reporting United do not want to include an option to buy in the loan deal.
Instead, new United director Sir Jim Ratcliffe wants to wait until the summer before setting a price to sell. Ratcliffe knows Sancho's price is at rock bottom and does not want to Dortmund to take advantage.
