According to The Sun, coach Erik ten Hag removed Jadon Sancho from Man Utd's contact group on the messaging app Whatsapp. This is an internal group for the Dutch coach to announce important things such as plans or even some technical notes to the players.

This action by coach Erik ten Hag means that Jadon Sancho is completely isolated from all activities of the main Man Utd team. The English star is not allowed to practice and live with his teammates in the training area as well as the stadium.

In addition, the Man Utd head coach also did not allow Sancho to use the training facilities and changing room of the main team. The 23-year-old midfielder had to go to the youth team area but also had to ensure a certain distance from other players.

Jadon Sancho's expulsion from Man Utd's internal communications team could be the final sign that the Englishman has no future at Old Trafford. The midfielder, born in 2000, is currently earning £350,000 a week under a contract that runs until 2026.

Man Utd lost to Newcastle in the English League Cup.

However, if Man Utd want to sell Jadon Sancho, they will face many difficulties. Not many clubs are willing to recruit this midfielder at a high price when he has been out of play for too long and his performance has declined significantly compared to when he played for Borussia Dortmund.

In September 2023, Man Utd announced on their homepage: " Jadon Sancho will participate in an individual training program separate from the first team, while waiting for the team's disciplinary issue to be resolved."

The incident stemmed from Man Utd's 1-3 loss to Arsenal in the fourth round of the Premier League. When asked about Jadon Sancho's absence, coach Erik Ten Hag said: "We didn't pick him because of his performance on the training ground. You have to perform at the highest level every day at Man Utd. I had many options and Sancho was not selected today."

Less than an hour later, on social network X, Sancho posted a response to the Man Utd head coach and said that the above information was false. The English midfielder deleted this post, but coach Erik ten Hag still started disciplinary measures afterwards.
