Erik ten Hag has responded to Jadon Sancho's sensational display for Borussia Dortmund against Paris Saint-Germain.

Sancho, back on loan at Dortmund for Manchester United, produced a scintillating performance as BVB ran out 1-0 winners over PSG in the Champions League semi-final first leg.

Niclas Fullkrug scored the only goal of the game but Sancho was unplayable, reminding everyone of his special talents.

He completed a total of 11 dribbles during the game, giving left-back Nuno Mendes the runaround at Signal Iduna Park.

His outing has brought about plenty of conversation about his stint at United and Ten Hag addressed it in his latest press conference.

Although the Dutchman banished him from the first-team environment after he refused to apologise for a statement which addressed claims he deemed to be "completely untrue", he did praise Sancho for his performance.

Ten Hag told media: "Jadon played very good, he showed why Manchester United bought him and he showed he represents a high value for the club. Which is good."

Asked about the possibility of Sancho returning to Old Trafford once his loan expires, he added: "I'm happy for Jadon, for his performance yesterday and we'll see what is going to happen in the future."

The 24-year-old has made 17 appearances in his second spell at Dortmund, rediscovering his confidence and swagger on the pitch.

He was quizzed by CBS Sports on whether he will be remaining with Dortmund next season and stated: "I really don't know. I'm focused on the present right now."

Though there is no option to buy in the deal, Dortmund are believed to be keen on securing a permanent deal for Sancho, who United expect to depart.

Recent reports claim the Red Devils are prepared to listen to offers for all but three players in their squad - with only Alejandro Garnacho, Rasmus Hojlund and Kobbie Mainoo safe.

But Ten Hag strongly refuted those suggestions, branding the claims "a joke".

He fumed: "It is a joke. Every window, it's said 200 players get an interest from Man Utd. It is untrue. Every summer it is said we sell all the players in our squad, which is untrue."
