I just want to play football and I’m getting that opportunity here. I’m happy right now.<\/p>\n \u201c[The language barrier] worried me quite a lot, but when I came and everyone started speaking English I got more comfortable. My German isn’t the best but I’m learning, I have to learn.<\/p>\n \u201cI’ve adapted really well. Obviously when I first came it was a bit difficult because I’m not around the corner from my house. But my family have helped me with that \u2013 and the club also.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \u201cGoing abroad wasn’t really a big deal. Since I was young I’ve always been away from home so I was comfortable.

Obviously last season wasn’t the best season for us so we knew that this season we had to prove a point to our fans.<\/p>\n \u201cIt was a stage that we just weren’t at our best \u2013 now we are and we’re top of the league. Everyone gives their best \u2013 we fight til the end.\u201d<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" One of England’s hottest prospects has fans wondering when he will return to the UK, but he is in no rush to depart Germany quite yet Jadon Sancho has admitted that he has no plans to leave Borussia Dortmund any time soon amid speculation that he would make a swift return to England.
