Problems for Jadon Sancho at Manchester United began when the manager Erik ten Hag left him out of the squad in a match against Arsenal. The manager reportedly termed the reason behind it, as the player’s below-par performance in the training.
Jadon Sancho then turned to one of his socials and stated himself as being used as a “scapegoat” at the club. For the Winger’s social media post, Erik ten Hag made it necessary for the player to apologize to him. It was reported that until the 23-year-old would apologize to the club’s manager he would not be allowed to be a part of any of the first-team activities.
According to the recently surfaced reports, the player hasn’t yet apologized to Erik ten Hag. The player has also been linked with a move away to different clubs in the upcoming January transfer window, considering his recent situation at Manchester United.

However, it seems like Sancho’s nightmare situation at the club may not end in January. Reports suggest the club will not let the player go for a reduced fee in the upcoming transfer window. The winger hasn’t played much in the last few months.
So, a reduced-fee deal might be one of the options that some of the teams would have preferred. However, now it looks like Manchester United doesn’t want to go that way.
Fans have reacted to the player’s situation at the club. One of the fans commented – “What they will do is play him a few games to increase his price”. Another one chipped in and wrote – “So how much? Cause he’s already a flop!!”.

A follower stated – “Free agent soon”. One of the fans inflicted – “Ten Hag basically saying You ain’t leaving, and you ain’t playing”. It can be inferred from these reactions that fans are really puzzled by the reports of the club not wanting to let the player go for a reduced fee.
Manchester United’s manager Erik ten Hag reluctant to alleviate his stance on Jadon Sancho
As per the reports, the 53-year Manchester United manager is less likely to alleviate his stance on the 23-year-old winger. This would be the same even if the manager is being propelled to reconsider the situation by the prospected shareholder Sir Jim Ratcliffe.
🚨 JUST IN!
Erik ten Hag is UNLIKELY to soften his stance on Jadon Sancho even if he is asked to review the situation by incoming shareholder Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his team!

Erik ten Hag would continue to seek an apology from his player while considering if there’s a way back for the English-born player in the current team. Fans of the club might think that the veteran manager is taking things too far with the player.
Seria A club Juventus linked with Manchester United’s Jadon Sancho
As per the reports, Seria A club Juventus have inquired about the 23-year-old Manchester United winger. Reportedly, the club is only interested in a loan deal for the player in the upcoming winter transfer window.
However, reports suggest that the Red Devil’s hierarchy would only entertain the proposals of a permanent move. This might make the deal collapse even before it gets on the board. Also, United is further looking for any other offers if available for the player in the market.
The winger was a $87.94 million big-price buy for the club from Borussia Dortmund. However, it seems unlikely that the Red Devils will get a higher sum of money for the player. If anything might come between a possible deal for the player, maybe the club’s reported stubbornness to not let the player go for a reduced sum of fee.
