Jadon Sancho is reportedly expected to leave Manchester United in January with the winger’s career at the club considered to be ’90 per cent over’.

Sancho has been training on his own at the academy facilities since the beginning of October after he was exiled by Erik ten Hag for publicly branding the United manager a liar over his reasons for dropping him for the 3-1 away defeat by Arsenal.

The 23-year-old winger continues to work alone at Carrington where he is forbidden to mix or eat with his team-mates.

It is understood that the player can come in from the cold if he says sorry to Ten Hag, but only if the apology is sincere.

So far Sancho has refused to give his manager the apology he wants, and is showing no signs of backing down despite the appeals from senior figures at the club and his own team-mates.

According to a report from Fabrizio Romano, Manchester United officials believe Sancho has to find a new club in January.

The club are reportedly aware that a permanent deal is unlikely to be struck in January for the winger, who cost the club £73m in the summer of 2021, with a loan deal considered a more likely prospect.

‘I think they [United] know at the moment that it’s not going to be a permanent transfer, that could be a loan deal with a buy option included,’ Romano said on his Daily Briefing podcast.

‘So, I think in January that they will be open to any opportunity of course.

‘Of course, they would prefer a permanent transfer, that would be perfect to have their money back after what they spent on Jadon Sancho from Borussia Dortmund.

‘At the moment, the people from Manchester United is very clear, it looks like it’s 90 per cent over between Jadon Sancho and Man United.

‘We keep a 10 per cent because we know that anything can happen in football, but as of today, it reminds us of the situation with Cristiano Ronaldo one year ago.

‘The feeling is that Jadon has to find a new club in the January transfer window.’
