It was revealed that Ten Hag demanded that Manchester United send Sancho away, who has been suspended for one month, or exchange him for Barcelona's wing
On December 11, Beijing time, according to the news from the well-known Spanish media "World Sports Newspaper", Manchester United coach Ten Hag seems to have been determined to send away the England winger Sancho, who broke with him. He not only informed Manchester United that they had to sell Sancho in the winter window, but also suspended Sancho for one month.
Sancho has not played for United's senior team since rejecting Ten Hag in a post refuting Ten Hag and refusing to be a scapegoat after Manchester United's 3-1 defeat to Arsenal in early September. Not only was he barred from training with United's first team, but he was also barred from eating in the club's canteen. However, even after being suppressed by Ten Hag, Sancho still refused to admit his mistake. Even when training alone, he still went his own way, arriving late and leaving early for various reasons, which further angered Ten Hag.
It is reported that the Dutch coach has instructed Manchester United not to pay Sancho his salary for November, and the reason given by Manchester United is that the former Great Britain has not followed the team's discipline. He doesn't train or play, so he doesn't get paid. Jadon Sancho's current weekly wage at Manchester United is £350,000, with a one-month break meaning he lost £1.4 million in wages.
Not only is there a pay suspension, but Ten Hag is also determined to send Sancho away in the upcoming winter window. Manchester United are well aware that no team is willing to pay the €85 million that United have invested in Jadon Sancho, so they plan to send Sancho away through a player swap, and their target is Brazilian winger Raphinha, who is also depressed at Barcelona.
Raphinha joined Barcelona from Leeds United for €58 million last summer, but after a mediocre performance last season, he has to be sidelined for a long time this season due to injury, and Barca have lost patience with him. If Raphinha can be sent back to the Premier League through a swap, it is also the result that Barcelona want to see. Currently, Sancho is valued at €32 million in the German transfer market, while Raphinha is worth €60 million.
