According to the sources, Jadon Sancho has received no sympathy for his current situation from the Manchester United dressing room, despite being one of their teammates. The 23-year-old is currently out of favor at United. The rift between him and the Red Devil’s manager, Erik ten Hag, has gotten worse over time.
One source has highlighted the winger’s current situation at the Premier League club, Manchester United. The quote used is, “The players have had enough of him”. One could have hoped that after falling out of the pecking order in the club’s hierarchy, at least his teammates would stand by him. But it seems like Sancho has lost the likeness of his fellow teammates as well.

Earlier, Erik ten Hag gave a very fitting reply when asked why Jadon Sancho was not included in the squad against Arsenal. The manager inflicted that the player’s performance at the training ground was not good, and that’s why he was not selected. United’s manager further pressed on the issue that the training standards set by him were not met by the player.
The London-born player has been facing stiff competition from his fellow teammate, Alejandro Garnacho. Ever since Garnacho has started doing well for the Red Devils, Sancho has been left further down the pecking order.
Jadon Sancho wants to “fight for the badge” despite fallout with the Manchester United manager
The left winger had struggled to impress after his much-talked-about $91 million move from Bundesliga giants Borussia Dortmund. Manchester United signed him in July 2021. His current contract ends in June 2026. After being criticized by United’s manager for his efforts in training, the player had an outburst. The former Dortmund player has shown his disappointment with the comments made by his manager.
In a social media statement of his, Sancho says, “I will continue to fight for the Badge.” The 23-year-old earlier stated that he’s been a “scapegoat” for a long time in this club. The winger didn’t start the first three matches for United this season. The player only came off the bench as a substitute.
Amid all these turns of events, there were also links and interest in the English-born player from the Saudi Pro League. Al-Ettifaq was touted as the club monitoring the youngster’s availability. However, the move fell through as the club failed to impress United’s hierarchy with a bid for a loan move. According to the reports, Sancho will consult the club’s coaching staff about his future and the failure of this move.
The winger has made eighty-two appearances for United so far, with twelve goals and six assists to his name. It remains to be seen whether the player finds himself back in the plans of Erik ten Hag or if the future holds something else for him.
