Jadon Sancho Believes Truce With Ten Hag ‘Impossible’
Jadon Sancho reportedly believes a reconciliation with Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag is ‘not impossible’ after being exiled from the first-team.
Early in September, in a 3-1 loss to Arsenal, Sancho was left out of the United squad. Following his denial of being dropped due to poor training output, the England international accused his boss of using him as a “scapegoat” for the team’s poor start to the season. The former star of Borussia Dortmund, Sancho hasn’t played for United since, and in January, the team may try to sell him. Though there hasn’t been “no move” on this as of yet, a reconciliation between Ten Hag and the 23-year-old reporter Dharmesh Sheth of Sky Sports suggests there may be more twists to the story. He added Sancho’s mood is “as good as it can be given the situation.”

Sancho left Borussia Dortmund in 2021 for Manchester United for a staggering £73 million ($91 million) in transfer fees, but he has not lived up to the hype. He has only contributed six assists and nine goals to the Red Devils’ 58 Premier League games. In comparison, he made 51 assists and 38 goals in 104 Bundesliga games for Dortmund. Maybe it would be better for everyone if we left in January.
Before playing Fulham in the Premier League on Saturday, United will play Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday, a rematch of the Red Devils’ victory in the previous season’s championship game. Sancho’s future as a player of the Manchester team is still unknown.
