Ten Hag remains steadfast in his confrontation with Sancho, as the player has been absent from the club since August. Sancho proclaimed on social media that he had endured the role of a scapegoat for an extended period. This was a direct reaction to Ten Hag's statement, in which he explained that Sancho was omitted from the squad for the Arsenal loss due to his inadequate performance during training.
United had hoped for a resolution, with director of football John Murtough and chief executive Richard Arnold attempting to mediate, but both parties remain unwilling to compromise. Senior players at United have also made efforts to address the situation but with no success.
As such, it is likely Sancho will depart Old Trafford in the winter transfer window, although a destination is yet to be determined.
'Dortmund to find it difficult to sign Sancho'
We News chief reporter Kaveh Solhekol:Currently, Sancho is being isolated and training independently due to his refusal to apologize to his manager, Erik ten Hag, thereby being excluded from the first-team squad.
According to reports from Sky Germany, Sancho has maintained consistent communication with Borussia Dortmund manager, Edin Terzic. It should be noted that Sancho previously played at Dortmund, with Terzic serving as his interim manager towards the conclusion of his tenure at the club.
According to Sky Germany, Dortmund is interested in bringing him back, likely on loan rather than a permanent move. However, they believe it is unlikely that he would actually return to the club. Dortmund acknowledges the challenge of persuading Manchester United to let him go.
Sancho seems unwilling to apologize, making it difficult for him to be reintegrated into the first-team. It is clear that he strongly stands by his position on the matter.
If this continues until January, he would be forced to exit United as he can't afford to squander his career without playing. In all likelihood, he would opt for a loan transfer to a foreign club. Undoubtedly, numerous clubs would be eager to secure his signature due to his exceptional skills on the field.
