Erik ten Hag has asserted that doubts about Jadon Sancho's ability were never a factor in the decision to allow his exit from Manchester United – a decision that has now come under renewed scrutiny.
Sancho returned to his former club Borussia Dortmund on loan in January, following a contentious fallout with Ten Hag. And, despite the discord, Sancho has regained his form in Germany, helping Dortmund recently secure a spot in the Champions League semi-finals.
Speaking ahead of United's FA Cup semi-final against Coventry City, Ten Hag stated, "We know he [Sancho] is a fantastic player. That is not a surprise. That is not the issue.
"It was a fantastic game – Dortmund against Atletico Madrid. Great performance from Dortmund and for Jadon it's good news, he made his contribution to the result for Dortmund.
Of course, I follow international football and follow the players on loan at other clubs."
Sancho's long-term future at United is not the only talking point at Old Trafford, with rumours also engulfing Brazilian midfielder Casemiro.

He can be adamant all he wants. Dude is getting sacked and he’s the only one that doesn’t see it coming.
