Only one Man Utd player liked the club’s birthday message to Jadon Sancho on Instagram

 

Only one Manchester United player has liked the club’s birthday message to Jadon Sancho, hinting at where his future lies.


Sancho left Old Trafford under a cloud in January after a public falling out with United boss Erik ten Hag.

The manager left Sancho out of his squad for United’s Premier League defeat to Arsenal in September 2023, and publicly accused the attacker of poor performances in training.

After Sancho hit back on social media and claimed he was being scapegoated, Ten Hag froze him out of his squad and banished him from first team training.

After months of uncertainty, Sancho joined Borussia Dortmund on loan until the end of the season, the club United signed him from in 2021 for £73 million.

The 24-year-old has struggled since returning to Germany, scoring just one goal and providing two assists in eight Bundesliga appearances.

Dortmund officials have already publicly admitted they are unlikely to be able to make Sancho’s return permanent due to United’s asking price.

With his United contract valid until 2026, Sancho could end up returning to Old Trafford next season.

 

If he does, then things could be a little awkward in the dressing room after just one United player ‘liked’ the club’s birthday message to him.

Sancho turned 24 on Monday, but youth team player Amir Ibragimov was the only United player to ‘like’ the club’s Instagram birthday post to Sancho.

United simply captioned the image of Sancho: “Happy birthday”, with the post attracting almost 650,000 likes.

Marcus Rashford and Aaron Wan-Bissaka were the only United stars to ‘like’ the club’s good luck post to Sancho when he left the club on loan in January.

Should he return to Old Trafford, the form of Alejandro Garnacho will make it hard for Sancho to win back his place in Ten Hag’s side.
