In a significant development, Jadon Sancho has been photographed at Manchester United’s training ground for the first time since his exile by manager Erik ten Hag.
The 23-year-old, who has been training in isolation, has not featured for the club since August, and his absence from the squad persisted during United’s recent 1-0 defeat to Crystal Palace.
Sancho was seen watching United’s Under-18s alongside teammate Kobbie Mainoo, posing for a photo with a young fan.
The broader context reveals that Sancho’s exclusion stems from a disagreement with Ten Hag, who cited the player’s performance in training as below par.
Sancho, in response, dismissed these claims publicly, alleging that he has been unfairly scapegoated since joining the club in 2021. Consequently, Ten Hag banished Sancho from all first-team areas at United’s Carrington training ground.
With a proposed move to Saudi Arabia falling through, Sancho’s return to the training ground raises questions about a potential reintegration into the squad.
However, Ten Hag provided no update on Sancho’s situation, leaving fans and pundits alike curious about the forward’s future at Manchester United.
