Jadon Sancho could reportedly be offered a way out of Manchester United in the January transfer window.
After being left out of the United squad to face Arsenal last weekend, Sancho’s performances in training were criticised by Red Devils boss Erik ten Hag.
He said: “Jadon was [absent] on his performance on the training.

“We didn't select him. You have to reach a level every day at Manchester United and we can make choices on the frontline, so for this game, he wasn't selected.”
Sancho later defended himself by releasing a statement of his own, he wrote: “Please don't believe everything you read! I will not allow people saying things that is completely untrue, I have conducted myself in training very well this week.
“I believe there are other reasons for this matter that I won't go into, I've been a scapegoat for a long time which isn't fair!

“All I want to do is play football with a smile on my face and contribute to the team. I respect all decisions that are made by the coaching staff, I play with fantastic players and I am grateful to do so, which I know every week is a challenge. I will continue to fight for this badge no matter what!”
As a result of this public spat, Sancho’s future at United is now in doubt.
The Englishman could now be offered a chance to leave Old Trafford in the winter.

According to The Sun, Sancho’s former club, Borussia Dortmund are interested in making a move to sign the 23-year-old during the January transfer window.
Earlier in the summer, it was reported that Dortmund wanted to sign Sancho on loan, but their offer was rebuffed by the Old Trafford club.
Despite that, it has been claimed that the German side are keeping tabs on how the situation will develop in the coming months.
If the situation worsens, Dortmund will reportedly reignite their interest in the player they sold to United for £73 million by in 2021.
