Jadon Sancho ‘blames Erik ten Hag’ for career decline and will refuse to return to Manchester United if Dutchman remains

Jadon Sancho, the talented winger for Manchester United, is reportedly adamant about not returning to Old Trafford if Erik ten Hag remains as the manager next season. Sancho’s decision stems from his perceived decline in career trajectory, which he attributes to Ten Hag.

The rift between Sancho and Ten Hag intensified when the midfielder was loaned to Dortmund for the remainder of the season. Their relationship soured further after Sancho took offense at comments made by Ten Hag following a defeat against Arsenal in August. Sancho was notably left out of the squad due to his performances in training, prompting accusations from Sancho that Ten Hag was using him as a scapegoat.

Despite Sancho deleting the social media post expressing his grievances, he refrained from offering an apology to Ten Hag. United, however, stood by Ten Hag’s decision and insisted that for Sancho to return to the squad, he must issue apologies both privately and publicly.

Sancho’s stance underscores the significance of the player-manager relationship in football and highlights the impact it can have on a player’s career trajectory. As the situation unfolds, it remains to be seen how Manchester United and Sancho navigate this delicate situation moving forward.
