Jadon Sancho has ended his 10-month exile from Manchester United's first team after resolving his dispute with manager Erik ten Hag during a meeting at the club's training ground. The forward has resumed training with the squad, bringing an end to a period that saw him banished following a public falling-out last September.
Sancho's exclusion stemmed from a social media post in which he contradicted Ten Hag's claim that he was dropped for Arsenal defeat due to poor training performances. After refusing to apologise, he was loaned to Borussia Dortmund in January, where he rediscovered his form and helped the German side reach the Champions League final.
While it remains unclear whether Sancho apologised to Ten Hag, the 24-year-old is now focusing on full pre-season participation. He will not travel to Norway for Monday’s friendly against Rosenborg due to his later start after the Champions League final, but is expected to feature against Rangers at Murrayfield next Saturday and during United's three-match US tour.
Despite the reconciliation, United may still entertain offers for Sancho as the club seeks to raise funds for new signings. A number of squad members are similarly available for transfer as the summer window progresses.
In other news, veteran defender Jonny Evans has signed a new one-year contract at Old Trafford. The 36-year-old Northern Irishman, who returned to the club last season after leaving in 2015, made 30 appearances and was a substitute in United's FA Cup final victory over Manchester City.
