Jadon Sancho's situation at Manchester United seems to have no solution. His last game was on August 26, in the 3-2 win over Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford, and since then he has been sidelined for a quarrel with coach Erik Ten Hag.

 

Initially it seemed that the punishment would only last a few days, until the parties reconciled and put their differences behind them. But weeks have passed and the player has refused to apologize to the Dutch manager. Reports indicate that even his teammates asked him to try to resolve the situation, but to no avail.

Meanwhile, Sancho is training with United's academy, but his punishment is much more severe than that. He can't even have lunch with his teammates, as he is not allowed to enter the first team canteen at Carrington. Instead, they take his food to the academy section. He also changes in his own ressing room. In addition, he was left out of the annual squad photo.

And now details of a new absurd punishment became known: he was removed from the Manchester United WhatsApp group. According to The Sun, the forward was there just like the other players in the squad, but he was recently axed from there as well. Erik Ten Hag and his assistants use that form of communication to give directions to the players on important issues related, for example, to training. Therefore, as he is no longer part of the squad, they decided that he should not be in the group either.

 

What will happen to him?

With this scenario, it seems impossible that Jadon Sancho will play for Manchester United again, at least as long as Ten Hag is the coach. That is why it is likely that in the January transfer window the club will try to negotiate his departure. Reports indicate that there are several clubs interested in signing him, such as Borussia Dortmund and Juventus.
