Sancho claims he had been made ‘scapegoat’ by United managerTen Hag not happy with winger’s attitude in training for weeks
Manchester United are standing by Erik ten Hag’s comments about Jadon Sancho following their 3-1 defeat to Arsenal, with the player risking disciplinary action over his social media outburst after the game.
United sources say there is “nothing to add” to the manager’s comments, with Ten Hag revealing after the loss at the Emirates Stadium that he had omitted Sancho from the matchday squad due to “his performances in training”. That prompted a rebuttal from Sancho, who claimed on Twitter that he had been made a “scapegoat”. United and Ten Hag have opted against making a public statement in response to Sancho’s post.
