 Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag is willing to give Jadon Sancho a final chance to salvage his career at the club. Manchester United news, exclusives and analysis Sign up Privacy Policy The England ace joined United from Dortmund in 2021 in a deal worth £71m. Sancho's arrival was the culmination of a pursuit that had lasted nearly three years but the winger has failed to live up to the hype during his two seasons at Old Trafford. The former Manchester City ace was given time off last season during the World Cup to recuperate, both mentally and physically. Ten Hag was praised for his handling of Sancho and the Dutchman had hoped that the midfielder's performances would improve as a result during the second half of the campaign. But, while Sancho managed a respectable seven goals in 39 appearances last term, his performance level was mixed at best. Sancho will be given another season to impress (Photo by Matthew Ashton – AMA/Getty Images) It's led to suggestions that United could cash in on Sancho this summer, as the Englishman could raise around £50m in the market. But the Times say Ten Hag's intention is to give Sancho another full season to prove himself at the club, as he remains an admirer of the playmaker. It's hoped that a full pre-season will give Sancho the platform to perform and a spot on the side's left flank could open up if Marcus Rashford starts the season as a centre forward. In any case, Sancho's wages make a move elsewhere difficult as there are few sides in world football that could afford his £200,000-a-week salary alongside a £50m transfer fee.
