Borussia Dortmund's official account aims dig at Erik ten Hag and Man Utd over Jadon Sancho

Borussia Dortmund's official account did not hold back with a post off the back of Jadon Sancho's superb showing vs Paris Saint-Germain.

Borussia Dortmund's official X account appeared to aim a dig at Erik ten Hag and Manchester United after his sensational showing vs Paris Saint-Germain.

Dortmund won the Champions League semi-final first leg 1-0 at Signal Iduna Park, courtesy of a solitary strike from Niclas Fullkrug in the first half.

But it was all about Sancho, who reminded everyone just how good he is with a sparkling showing.

After a nightmare spell at Manchester United, Sancho looked like his old self and brought that cage football swagger that swerved him so well.

He rinsed a whole lot of PSG players with his magic footwork and completed an incredible 11 dribbles - including seven in half an hour.

Sancho is the first Englishman to achieve such a feat since Opta started recording stats and his display had Rio Ferdinand salivating at the mouth.

He proved a lot of doubters wrong and after the game, Dortmund's official account did not hold back with their summary of his performance.

Accompanied with a picture of him from the game, BVB wrote: "You all owe him an apology, we were ALWAYS familiar with his game".

The wording could well by a dig at Erik ten Hag for his treatment of Sancho, who was ostracised from the first-team following claims he did not train well prior to the defeat to Arsenal in September.

After a period in limbo, Sancho headed back to Dortmund, where he made his name, on a loan deal until the end of the season.

He looks to have rediscovered his confidence again and produced arguably his best outing since returning to the Bundesliga on Wednesday.

Dortmund want to bring Sancho back to the club on a permanent basis in the summer, with talks taking place with United.

United will undoubtedly take a hit on the £73 million they forked out to land him, though Sancho isn't concerned with his future just yet.

Speaking to United legend Peter Schmeichel on CBS Sports, he said: "I really don't know, but I'm just focused on the present right now."
