Borussia Dortmund have emphasized that they have no issues

Borussia Dortmund have emphasized that they have no issues with the returning Jadon Sancho.

Sancho recently returned to his hometown club Dortmund from Manchester United. Sancho joined United from Dortmund in the 2020-2021 season, but was forced to leave the club midway through the campaign after clashing with United manager Eric ten Haag. He spent the rest of the season on loan.

Sancho came off the bench in the 17th round of the 2023-2024 German Bundesliga against Darmstadt on Thursday and scored in Dortmund’s 3-0 win. In his first game in nearly five months, Sancho assisted on Marco Reus’ goal in the 32nd minute.

Before the game, Dortmund CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke told local media that “Sancho has no problem with discipline” and insisted, “I don’t know who thought that,” according to AFP.

Sancho grew up at Manchester City but moved to Dortmund in 2017. He played for Dortmund until his move to United in 2020. Batzke emphasized this point.

“The kid has a bit of a problem with his internal clock, so he can be late sometimes,” he said, adding that some journalists may have confused him with Ousmane Dembele (Paris Saint-Germain), 토토사이트 who went on strike in 2017 to force a move to Barcelona.

Van Gaal explained his decision to leave Sancho out of the squad ahead of the fourth-leg tie against Arsenal in September last year by saying that “his performance in training was not good”.

Sancho then took to his social media

“Please don’t believe everything you read. I will not allow people to say things that are completely untrue. I have performed very well in training this week,” he wrote in a rebuttal.

Sancho continued, “I believe there are other reasons in this matter that I won’t talk about. I’ve been a scapegoat for a long time. It’s not fair,” he added. Ultimately, Sancho refused to bow to the club’s demands for an apology and has been excluded from first-team training since September.

Wojciechowski’s assessment could prove embarrassing for Van Gaal. Sancho was a disciplinarian at United, but he insists he has no problems at Dortmund. What’s more, he scored an attacking point as soon as he started.

For now, Sancho will be playing for Dortmund until the end of the season. He seems to be more motivated since returning to his hometown team. However, what happens after his loan ends is another matter. He might have to return to United.
