Erik ten Hag says Jadon Sancho ‘represents a high value for Manchester United’

Erik ten Hag says Jadon Sancho’s sensational Champions League performance for Borussia Dortmund showed why Manchester United bought him and underlined his “high value” ahead of the summer. The 24-year-old winger struggled to live up to the hype after joining United from the German club for £73million in 2021 and was banished last September after claiming on social media that he had been made a “scapegoat”. Sancho hit out after Ten Hag claimed he had not reached the “level” required to be involved in their squad at Arsenal and did not feature again for United, who loaned him out to his former employers for the rest of the season in January.
