Manchester United outcast Jadon Sancho is more likely to move abroad rather than stay in the Premier League.
Manchester United outcast Jadon Sancho is planning to leave in the upcoming transfer window to resurrect his professional career. The 23-year-old is tilting towards a move away from the Premier League and play overseas.
Sancho had a fallout with United manager Erik ten Hag early in the season and both have reached an impasse. Ten Hag criticized Sancho’s training performances after the Red Devils’ 1-3 away loss to Arsenal in early September.
The 23-year-old retaliated immediately to the accusation with a social media post defending his training work ethics. The Englishman accused the Dutchman of using him as a ‘scapegoat’ for a long time.
The Red Devils banned Sancho from the first-team facility as a consequence of his disobedience. However, the 23-year-old has not relented and refuses to apologize to the manager which may end his banishment.
United signed Sancho from German side Borussia Dortmund in the summer of 2021 after his incredible display in the Bundesliga. The England international appeared in 137 games for Dortmund while contributing 50 goals and 64 assists in all competitions.
However, Sancho has failed to deliver the same level of output for the Red Devils since signing for the club. The Englishman has 12 goals and six assists from 82 appearances in all competitions for United.
Sancho has struggled with both mental and physical issues during his time at the Old Trafford. The United boss publicly highlighted his mental struggle last season without the consent of the club and the player.
Many fans and football pundits have criticized Ten Hag‘s style of managing individuals. The 53-year-old had a falling out with Cristiano Ronaldo last season that led to the termination of the Portuguese’s contract.
Sky Sports Germany journalist Florian Plettenberg (h/t Football. London) reported that Sancho is planning to restart his career away from England. Juventus currently lead as frontrunners for the Englishman and have shown interest in a loan deal.

We think a deal away from England will be mutually beneficial for both the player and the club. United cannot afford to keep a player like Sancho with high wages on the sidelines for an extended period. They have to either cash in on him or find an immediate solution to end the spat which seems impossible. Whereas, Sancho is reaching the stage of his career where he needs regular football to fulfil his high potential. Furthermore, the 23-year-old will benefit from working with a manager who can supervise his mental and physical needs better.
