Sancho's Future Uncertain as Man United Staff Awaits Return

Since August 2023, Sancho has not appeared for the United team.

In the midst of doubts about his future, Jadon Sancho will resume training with Manchester United this week.

The 24-year-old was on loan at Borussia Dortmund for the second part of the previous season, where he advanced to the Champions League final.

Following a public argument between Sancho and United manager Erik ten Hag regarding the winger's training output, which ultimately resulted in the player's expulsion from the first team, that move was approved.

After that, Sancho gave Dortmund some excellent performances, especially in European competition, which sparked rumors that the German team might want to sign him long-term.

The England player, who was not included in Gareth Southgate's Euro 2024 team, will be able to leave United this summer for a cost of £40 million, according to BBC Sport.

However, Sancho is still a United player as of right now and has not yet received a good offer.

Even so, his immediate future at Old Trafford is reportedly uncertain, according to The Sun.

It is alleged that employees at United's Carrington training facility are 'in the dark' about Sancho's plans to start preseason training with the first team after working on an individual program following his altercation with Ten Hag until his departure.

The report also states that there is "no indication" as to what Sancho will be doing in pre-season, despite the fact that first team players typically receive a schedule summary during the first week of their return.

The conclusion of Sancho's tenure at Old Trafford may be precipitated by United's decision to retain Ten Hag as manager, following the Dutchman's ratification of a new two-year contract last week.

If that were to transpire, his final appearance for the club would have been as a substitute in the 3-2 victory over Nottingham Forest in August.

Following the 3-1 loss to Arsenal at the start of September, Ten Hag expressed his dissatisfaction with Sancho's training performances after he was excluded from the squad. Consequently, he did not appear for the club again that season.
