However, Sancho was unable to replicate his Dortmund with Manchester United. Since joining the club, he only played 82 games, in which he scored 12 goals and six assists. In 2023/24, the issue went out of hand when Sancho had a public spat with Erik ten Hag.
The Dutch boss kicked out the English winger from the main squad of Manchester United after the spat. Sancho only made three appearances for the English side in the first half of the season before moving back to Germany with Dortmund.

Sancho deactivated his social media accounts when he was frozen out by Erik ten Hag. Reports claimed that he wanted to move away from any attention during his time away from the main squad of Manchester United. However, the move to Dortmund has given a new lifeline to Sancho’s career.
Jadon Sancho is back on social media, and he celebrated his return by posting a picture in Dortmund’s jersey. The comment section was full of warm wishes from former teammates and friends of the English winger. Players like Jude Bellingham, Vinicius Jr., Aubameyang, Alphonso Davis, Jesse Lingard, and many more commented on the picture sending their regards to the player.

The online fans took the opportunity to make fun of the situation by commenting that Jadon Sancho survived a war against Erik ten Hag. The winger has six months to prove his capabilities. Sancho has stated that he has not given up on his future at Manchester United as he looks to help Dortmund climb back up to the top four places.
The wingers of the German club have been disappointing this season. Their low-goal contribution paved the way for Jadon Sancho’s move in the winter transfer window. Dortmund are currently 5th in the Bundesliga, six points behind Rb Leipzig in the fourth place. The German club is hoping that Sancho can help them perform better in the second half of the season.
