Manchester United are standing by Erik ten Hag’s comments about Jadon Sancho following their 3-1 defeat to Arsenal, with the player risking disciplinary action over his social media outburst after the game.
United sources say there is “nothing to add” to Ten Hag’s comments, with the Dutchman revealing after the loss at the Emirates Stadium that he had omitted Sancho from the matchday squad due to “his performances in training”. That prompted a rebuttal from the 23-year-old, who claimed on Twitter that he had been made a “scapegoat”.
