Man Utd Consider Jadon Sancho Exit Strategies Following Erik ten Hag Fallout

Jadon Sancho may be allowed to leave Manchester United on a “long-term” loan deal in January with a route back into the first team set up under Erik ten Hag extremely unlikely

Sancho is currently banished from the first team set up after a public falling out with manager Erik ten Hag, which escalated at the start of September when the 23-year-old was left out of the travelling squad to face Arsenal.

Ten Hag revealed Sancho’s training performance in comparison to his teammates was the reason for his omission, but the player then publicly challenged this reasoning on social media. Ten Hag and United promptly disciplined the player and he has been training away from the first team ever since, with no sign of resolution to date.

Sancho has been told that his only way back into the reckoning at Old Trafford would be by way of an apology to Ten Hag. 90min has revealed in the past month that Sancho has been actively encouraged to do so by the club’s hierarchy, coaches and his teammates, though he has refused to date and there are no signs of a change in direction.

United are now accepting that Sancho will have to leave the club in January. There have been suggestions that future co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe could impact on Sancho’s future but 90min has been told that the INEOS chief is a huge fan of Ten Hag, dating back to his previous work at Ajax, and will not interfere with any squad decisions.
