- The England international’s public outburst on social media landed him in hot water
- Sancho is no longer allowed to eat with the team and trains alone
- CHRIS SUTTON: Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is a clown It all starts
Jadon Sancho has reportedly been removed from Manchester United’s WhatsApp group as his exile shows no signs of ending.
The £73m winger has been forced to train alone at the academy and is banned from using first-team facilities after manager Erik ten Hag has publicly called him a liar over the reasons for dropping him after the 3 -1 defeat against Arsenal in September.
Sancho deleted the post on social media but refused to apologize for the outburst, which resulted in a now lengthy absence from the senior team.
According to The SunThe 23-year-old is no closer to reintegrating with his teammates but has been dropped from another link to the United dressing room.
They report that Sancho has been removed from the team’s WhatsApp group, which is used by Ten Hag and his staff to send important information to the players.

It looks like Jadon Sancho will leave Old Trafford in the coming transfer window
Last month, Mail Sport revealed that United will listen to offers for the England international in January, two and a half years after his big-money move from Borussia Dortmund.
The club were willing to accept £45m for Sancho in the summer and could now be persuaded to agree to a move from Old Trafford in January, especially if it comes with the guarantee of a permanent transfer.
United are prepared to take a significant loss on Sancho if it means backing Ten Hag, who was brought in to improve the discipline that had broken down under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Ralf Rangnick.
Sources suggest this was not Sancho’s first transgression under Ten Hag, whose strict rules led to him dropping top scorer Marcus Rashford at Wolves last season and recently branded his night out after the derby as unacceptable.
Sancho’s public backlash against his manager was by far the most serious transgression, and they will continue to support Ten Hag to the utmost, knowing that discipline is the foundation for his rebuild at United.
