Why is Jadon Sancho NOT playing for Man Utd?
JADON SANCHO was labelled as one of football’s best young talents when making the switch from Dortmund to Old Trafford.
But a public row has now cost him a place in the Manchester United first team.
And SunSport has all the details as to why Sancho will currently NOT be representing the English giants.
Why is Jadon Sancho not playing for Man Utd?
The Red Devils have confirmed that Jadon Sancho is currently on a “personal training programme” which also rules him out of having any upcoming games.
A short statement from the club read: “Jadon Sancho will remain on a personal training programme away from the first-team group, pending resolution of a squad discipline issue.”
And this all came as a result of a public row involving Sancho and United boss Erik ten Hag.
What was said in the public row?
Erik ten Hag revealed that Jadon Sancho was left out of United’s 3-1 defeat to Arsenal due to training performances.
The United gaffer said: “Jadon, on his performance in training, was not selected.
“You have to reach a level at Manchester United every day and we can make choices in the front line. So for this game he was not selected.”
And Sancho responded on Twitter with a now-deleted statement saying:
“Please don’t believe everything you read! I will not allow people saying things that is completely untrue.
“I have conducted myself in training very well this week. I believe there are other reasons for this matter that I won’t go into.
“I have been a scapegoat for a long time which isn’t fair! All I want to do is play football with a smile on my face and contribute to my team.
“I respect all decisions that are made by the coaching staff, I play with fantastic players… I will continue to fight for this badge no matter what!”
When will Jadon Sancho return?
There has been no set return date for Jadon Sancho at the time of publication.
But in a twist of events, Sancho is now open to a January exit according to reports.
The English winger is reportedly being lined up by Nottingham Forest in a shock Premier League switch.
