England face Croatia in their Nations League showdown tonight, aiming to secure a second win after beating Switzerland last time out.
All eyes are on Borussia Dortmund prodigy, who is seen as one of the hottest prospects in the Bundesliga.
And Ince, speaking exclusively to Express Sport, believes he was right to head to Dortmund following his release from Manchester City.
“It was a great move,” he said when asked about Sancho, who is in line for his England debut against Croatia tonight.

“If not tonight, then he should feature against Spain.
“I’m fed up with all these players stuck in the under-23s not playing for their clubs.
“They can have a lot of talent, a lot of potential, but what good is that if they’re not playing?
“They need to play. They have to play.
“Look at my boy, Thomas (Tom Ince). He was at Liverpool at 19 but then spent time at Notts County and Blackpool.
“Sancho is now playing at Dortmund and he’s really benefitted from that move.
“I wouldn’t necessarily say abroad, but I’d like to see more young players leaving their clubs to get game time.”
Ince himself chanced his arm abroad, just like the Borussia Dortmund prodigy.
The 50-year-old spent two years at Inter Milan following his departure from Manchester United.
Express Sport quizzed him on how he felt swapping the Premier League for Serie A.
“Those were the greatest years of my career,” he added.
“Everything there was great. The food, the culture.
“I was a bit apprehensive because there are things you need to consider. Will the wife settle? My boy was two at the time. Finding him a school as well.
“But they were great years. There was no better place to be.
“Italian football had Zinedine Zidane, Roberto Carlos, Roberto Baggio. It was a great experience.”
