Jadon Sancho is prohibited from using Manchester United’s first-team canteen

Jadon Sancho is prohibited from using Manchester United’s first-team canteen. Instead, his food is brought to him in a lunch box across the walkway at Carrington.

Sancho, however, snapped back at his coach. On social media, the 23-year-old claimed that the accusations were “completely untrue”.

Since then, reports suggest that Ten Hag has asked Sancho to apologize for his actions. An apology could help him get back into the main squad. However, it is believed that Sancho has refused to apologize and accepted being exiled from the main team facilities.

United had slapped a £65m price tag on Sancho, but a loan move may now also be an option.

Saudi Arabia remains the ‘most plausible’ option due to Sancho’s wages – he currently earns £200,000 per week.

His previous club Borussia Dortmund, who have been among the teams linked, couldn’t get near that figure, and despite contact, aren’t interested in a January move in any case. They know all about Sancho’s oversleeping and poor timekeeping.

Juventus have also been linked but according to The Athletic ‘some in the industry believe Sancho’s connections to London, the city he grew up in, make Chelsea a possible option’.

The Blues already have Mykhaylo Mudryk, Raheem Sterling and Noni Madueke as wingers for Mauricio Pochettino to call upon, while the return of Christopher Nkunku in January will provide the Argentinian boss with a further option.

Reports suggest that many clubs are monitoring Sancho’s situation at United. Although he has had a tough life in Manchester, it should not be forgotten that he is still young and has shown great potential.

Jadon Sancho is currently eating out of a ‘lunch box’ at Manchester United and could be provided an escape route by Chelsea, according to reports.

Sancho was left out of the squad for United’s 3-1 defeat to Arsenal on September 3, after which Erik ten Hag clarified: “On his performance in training, we didn’t select him. You have to reach the level every day at Manchester United.”

The England international disputed his manager’s claim on social media and hasn’t played a game since, having been jettisoned from first team training, and forced to use the academy facilities, as he has refused to apologise.

The Athletic has revealed the details of Sancho’s exile form the first team, revealing he’s forced to eat his food from a ‘lunch box’ on his own.
