Since his dispute with manager Erik Ten Hag, Jadon Sancho hasn’t been seen at Man United’s training facility.
The United winger, who attacked Ten Hag in a since-deleted social media post, has been kicked out of the team because he won’t back down and accept responsibility.
In a response posted online, Sancho claimed he was being used as a “scapegoat” after being left out of Manchester United’s matchday squad during a 3-1 loss to Arsenal at the beginning of September.
The winger has now been spotted back at Carrington for the first time since the public spat, having been prohibited from visiting first-team facilities.
At a United 18 game on Saturday, Sancho was spotted smiling for a photo with teammate Kobbie Mainoo and a little fan. Sancho, sporting a Man United puffer jacket, can be seen posing for the picture with a smile on his face. ‘Watching United U18’s with the lads,’ said the post’s caption on the fan’s account.On Saturday, United’s U18 team thrashed Newcastle 5-1 while Sancho and Mainoo watched from the sidelines. 
Sancho will train apart from the rest of United’s first-team players as he attempts to mend his relationship with manager Ten Hag, as previously reported by Mail Sport.Jadon Sancho will continue his personal training regimen separate from the first-team group while the club works to resolve a squad discipline issue, according to a club statement. 
Since the Red Devils’ victory over Nottingham Forest on August 26, Sancho has not played for the first squad. After Ten Hag claimed the winger’s exclusion from United’s 3-1 loss to Arsenal on September 3 was due to his “performances in training,” tensions between Sancho and Ten Hag developed.I have behaved myself in training this week extremely well, he remarked on X (previously Twitter), adding, “I’ve been the scapegoat for a long time, which isn’t fair!”
Mail Sport also said that Man United football director football John Murtough and CEO Richard Arnold had taken an active role in trying to mend the split. Ten Hag was scheduled to speak with Sancho to clear the air. Before United’s 1-0 loss to Crystal Palace at home, fellow winger Antony resumed training at Carrington, which was encouraging for the team.The 23-year-old was interrogated by Greater Manchester Police on Thursday regarding claims that he assaulted his girlfriend Gabriela Cavallin, which he vehemently denies, and was then free to return home.
Prior to Ten Hag’s news conference on Friday, United released a statement announcing Antony’s return, and the Dutchman said: “We make the statement so I refer to the statement, everything has been made clear in the statement.” It isn’t a distraction, in my opinion. We’ll pay attention to the games. He will follow suit.
