Manchester United fans are more than pleased to see Jadon Sancho looking fit and ready after he recently returned to training.
Sancho had not been involved in full first-team training since the end of October, shortly after his final appearance for the Reds which came in the 1-1 draw at Chelsea earlier that month. Erik ten Hag had cited a lack of fitness as the reason for his absence, placing him on an individual programme while the rest of the squad flew to Spain during the World Cup.
But after the Dutchman confirmed Sancho's return, the winger was photographed in training last week and he was also involved on Monday as United begun their preparations for the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg at Nottingham Forest. Ten Hag confirmed on Tuesday that Sancho, Diogo Dalot and Anthony Martial are all unavailable for the tie, but United fans were excited to see their winger back and looking in fine physical condition regardless.

@karanmufc87 was equally pleased to see Sancho, tweeting: "It’s great to see Jadon Sancho back training with Man Utd. We do need to manage expectations, but we we’re reaching a point whereby we need him. If Pellistri stays, then we have him, Rashford, Antony and Garnacho. It makes me wonder if Ten Hag might use Sancho more as a no.8/10!"
While @The_UTD_Lad said: "Jadon Sancho believers, gather here. Our boy's gonna be back and they ain't gonna see it coming"
