Sancho training away from Man Utd first team

Jadon Sancho is training away from Manchester United's first-team on a "personal training programme" pending a resolution of a "squad discipline issue".

Sancho was left out of United's matchday squad for the trip to Arsenal on Sunday September 3, with manager Erik ten Hag explaining after the match that the decision was due to poor training performances.

 Later the same evening, the 23-year-old claimed he had been "a scapegoat for a long time" and said Ten Hag's claims were "completely untrue."

Following the online outburst, Sancho was linked with a shock move to Saudi Arabia on loan but ended up staying at Old Trafford, amid planned talks between him and the coaching staff this week.

This is not the first time England international Sancho has been excluded from United training under Ten Hag, with the winger undergoing an individual fitness programme in the Netherlands last season which saw him watch the World Cup from afar.

During that period, Sancho did not play for United between October 22 and February 1 - but did play in the Carabao Cup final win over Newcastle upon his return and ended last season with seven goals and three assists for United.
