Tensions within the Manchester United camp have reached a boiling point as star player Jadon Sancho finds himself at odds with manager Erik ten Hag. The 23-year-old winger’s relationship with the Dutchman has soured to such an extent that Sancho is now hoping for a managerial change at the club to protect his career.

The feud began when Sancho was left out of the matchday squad for a crucial game against Arsenal. In response to questions about his absence, Ten Hag publicly stated that Sancho’s training had been subpar. In a bold move, Sancho posted a now-deleted social media message contradicting Ten Hag’s claims, effectively calling the manager a liar.

In an effort to defuse the situation, Manchester United asked Sancho to issue an apology to Ten Hag, but the winger vehemently refused. The standoff escalated, leading to Ten Hag excluding Sancho from first-team training and even restricting his access to certain facilities within the club.

Week by week, the possibility of Sancho’s departure from the club becomes more plausible. Reports have emerged suggesting that the club might be open to subsidizing his substantial £300,000-a-week wages to facilitate a loan move to another team. This complex situation has significant implications, including the risk of Sancho losing his place in the England national team for the upcoming Euros.

Ironically, while Sancho had initially hoped to outlast Ten Hag at Manchester United, it appears that the winger might be the first to part ways with the club. While there have been speculations of potential suitors, including rumored interest from Juventus, the winger could benefit from a loan move in the upcoming January transfer window to secure regular playing time.

As things stand, the impasse between Sancho and Ten Hag remains unresolved. Ten Hag has made it clear that a return to first-team activities hinges on a comprehensive public apology from the Manchester United ace, something Sancho has been reluctant to provide. The situation is one to watch as the drama continues to unfold at Old Trafford. Get the latest updates from the Premier League only on Nextbet Sports.
