In recent months, Manchester United have once again found themselves in deep crisis, with a shocking European exit in a Champions League group containing Bayern, Copenhagen and Galatasaray and a disappointing eighth-place finish in the Premier League. Erik ten Hag had to take a lot of criticism, also because of his handling of some files.
For example, the Dutchman was heavily criticized for his treatment of Jadon Sancho. The winger was sent to the B squad at the beginning of September because he publicly contradicted his coach’s words. After the top game against Arsenal, Ten Hag said that Sancho was not in the selection due to disappointing performances in training.
Sancho returns to Dortmund
However, Sancho then sent a statement to the world that there was nothing to criticize about his training work and that he was being used as a scapegoat. Ten Hag immediately sent him to the B team and Sancho stayed there for four months because he refused to apologize.
However, a solution to this annoying situation has finally been found. It had been rumored for some time that Sancho would return to Borussia Dortmund and the move has now been completed. The Germans are paying €3.5 million to sign the winger for the rest of the season, with no option to buy.
Restart your career
The 23-year-old Sancho now has to restart his career in the old nest. His breakthrough came after Dortmund signed him from Manchester City’s U18s in the summer of 2017 and he became one of the most sought-after players in Europe. Manchester United ultimately won the battle for his signing in 2021 and put 80 million on the table for it.
However, Sancho was never able to live up to the high expectations at Old Trafford. He sank into the crisis that had gripped the club for years and this season marked the sad low point. United and Sancho will hope that he gets back to his level in familiar surroundings.
