The English winger scored his first goal since returning to Dortmund on loan from Manchester United, helping secure a 2-1 victory over Werder Bremen over the weekend. Following the match, manager Terzic addressed Sancho’s concerns, stating that the player remained ‘dissatisfied’ despite his goal.

Terzic explained to reporters, “In the last few days and weeks, I’ve gotten many, many questions about why he isn’t where he was yet. For us, it makes complete sense if you take into account what his last 12 months looked like, and yet last week he was very dissatisfied and there was a long conversation.”

“After the game, he was dissatisfied because he said he lost the ball too many times, especially in the second half, and that’s what I like about him. He is not just focusing on his goal but taking in the entire performance. Even though he hadn’t scored in the last few weeks, we’ve seen that he’s well on his way there. We know he’s not 100 per cent yet but we’ll get him there.” Terzic added.

Previously, Dortmund’s sporting director, Sebastian Kehl, attributed Sancho’s dip in form to Manchester United, while commending his performance against Bremen. Kehl suggested that being sidelined earlier in the season had impacted the 23-year-old’s performance, likening it to an ACL injury.

The Manchester United loanee will feature next in the Champions League on Wednesday, when Dortmund faces PSV Eindhoven in the second leg of their round of 16 tie.
