Sancho played a pivotal role in Dortmund’s triumph, featuring prominently in both legs of the Champions League quarter-final clash against Atletico Madrid, ultimately contributing to their 5-4 aggregate win. Despite Sancho’s impressive performances during his loan spell at Dortmund, his ongoing conflict with Ten Hag remains a significant hurdle in reshaping his future prospects at Manchester United.
While recognizing Sancho’s exceptional abilities, Ten Hag emphasized that he never doubted the winger’s talent. Instead, he commended Sancho for rejuvenating his career in Germany but emphasized that talent alone cannot address the underlying issues that led to his loan departure from Manchester United.
Addressing the media, Ten Hag commented, “Of course, I follow international football and follow the players on loan at other clubs. It was a fantastic game, Dortmund against Atletico Madrid. A great performance from Dortmund and also for Jadon it’s good news. He made his contribution to the result for Dortmund.”
However, when questioned about any changes regarding Sancho’s future at Old Trafford, Ten Hag was straightforward, stating, “No, but we know Jadon Sancho is a fantastic football player, so that is not a surprise for us. That is not the issue.”
Sancho’s loan spell in Germany has been fruitful, but it has added complexity to Manchester United’s pursuit of a Champions League spot for the upcoming season. With England, Italy, and Germany competing for an additional slot based on UEFA’s country coefficient, Dortmund’s advancement has favored Germany in their bid for a fifth Champions League berth in the expanded competition next season. Consequently, England will maintain four spots, significantly impacting Manchester United’s Champions League aspirations.
While Dortmund prepares for a showdown against PSG in the Champions League semi-finals, Manchester United is focused on the FA Cup. Their upcoming fixture against Coventry City presents an opportunity to secure a place in the cup final and salvage their season with a trophy.
