Manchester United player currently “risking his career” and needs to stop, says club icon

Manchester United icon Louis Saha has told Jadon Sancho he must stop his feud with Erik ten Hag as he is risking his football career over their stalemate.

Jadon Sancho is unlikely to play for Manchester United ever again after he was exiled from Erik ten Hag‘s team following his statement on social media that effectively branded the Dutch manager a liar.

This was a reaction to Ten Hag’s claims that Sancho had been left out of a squad in September due to poor training levels.

He is now starting to thrive during a six-month loan spell at Borussia Dortmund, helping the club reach the Champions League semi-finals.

The sole reason for Sancho’s exile, beyond the fact that he accused Ten Hag of lying, is that following the ordeal, he refused to apologise, which is always the route back with the Dutch manager – something that both Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho know.

However, former United striker Louis Saha has sent a warning to Jadon Sancho, explaining that he isn’t proving any point and that he is risking his career.

“I don’t believe he’s proving any point,” Saha told BetFred. “The only point he’s proving is that he’s a talented player, and if he wasn’t stubborn, he could have been doing what he’s doing for Borussia Dortmund for Manchester United now. He hasn’t proven anything.

“There’s no doubt about his talent, but his attitude has been challenged during his time with Manchester United, and the way he’s dealt with it has been to the risk of his own career. Erik ten Hag knew he was missing the opportunity to play a good player, and that’s it. 

“It was a situation where the player, manager and club were all losing simultaneously. It’s all about ego and the club has to stop allowing those things to happen because it’s just not right.

“All that’s been proven is that things like this shouldn’t be happening at such a big club.”
