Jadon Sancho told not to use first team facilities<\/h3>\n

Manchester United reportedly drew up a plan to publish any private apology from Jadon Sancho following his public feud with manager Erik ten Hag. But the Red Devils\u2019 plot backfired after the winger refused to back down despite being banished from the first team. And Ten Hag is now set to axe the 23-year-old.<\/p>\n

United shelled out a whopping \u00a373million to prise Sancho away from Borussia Dortmund in the summer of 2021, with the former Manchester City youngster tipped to take the Premier League by storm. But the England international has struggled to make an impact in an underperforming United team and has returned just 12 goals and six assists in 82 appearances for the north west giants.<\/p>\n

The ace was named on the bench for United\u2019s first three Premier League matches this season but was then dropped from the matchday squad for his side\u2019s trip to Arsenal at the start of September.<\/p>\n

Ten Hag told reporters Sancho\u2019s absence was down to his performances in training. But the player instantly took to social media to defend himself and hit out at the Dutchman. He hasn\u2019t played for the club since and is currently training on his own.<\/p>\n

United have demanded an apology from the star, which would have been made public by the club, according to the Daily Mail, and would have been viewed as a victory for Ten Hag.<\/p>\n

Sancho is not even allowed to eat with the senior squad but remains close to a number of his team-mates and was spotted with Aaron Wan-Bissaka in New York in September. His days at Old Trafford now appear to be numbered, with recent reports suggesting the ace is officially on the United transfer list.<\/p>\n
