Ryanair under fire for 'disgraceful' tweet to Jadon Sancho as Steven Bartlett says airline has 'no class'

Ryanair have faced backlash after a tweet it sent to footballer Jadon Sancho following the England World Cup squad announcement. Yesterday (November 11) Gareth Southgate revealed his 26-man England squad for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, with Manchester City and United players making the cut including Jack Grealish, Phil Foden, Harry Maguire and Marcus Rashford.

Despite being called up for the Euro 2020 last year, Manchester United 's Jadon Sancho has unfortunately been left out of the 2022 Three Lions squad. But whilst the footballer was presumably gutted after hearing the announcement, budget airline Ryanair took it upon themselves to send Sancho a message that has since received backlash.

After the England squad was confirmed, Ryanair tweeted the United player to offer him a flight. The tweet read: "@Sanchooo10 we'll still fly you somewhere," alongside an emoji blowing a kiss.
