‘To the rest of you’ – what Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho said after Borussia Dortmund’s win

Jadon Sancho will feel vindicated by his decision to stick with Erik ten Hag, which eventually led to his loan return to Borussia Dortmund.

He was instrumental in guiding the Germans to their first Champions League final since 2013, which coincidentally was also played at Wembley. Sancho played at the stadium twice for Manchester United last season, in both the FA Cup and League Cup finals.

His last appearance there for England came in November 2020 and reports suggest that despite his recent resurgence, the winger will not be selected for Gareth Southgate’s Euros squad this summer.

United are set to cash in on Sancho’s success in Germany, claiming the club will receive £3m for reaching the Champions League final and could earn more if they lift the trophy.

Some fans may be hoping the 24-year-old stays at Old Trafford next season despite two-and-a-half seasons since his £73million 2021 arrival from Dortmund. However, Rio Ferdinand believes this will only happen if the current manager is sacked.

He told TNT Sports: “I think the only way he goes back to Manchester United is if Erik ten Hag is not there. I don’t think they can undermine the coach and let a player not apologize and then bring him back.

“I don’t think they will undermine the manager in that way. I think Ten Hag needs to go and get out of the building for Jadon Sancho to come back. If he plays like that again tonight, it really puts pressure on United and the people behind the scenes.”

Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl says his club will consider negotiating a deal with United for Sancho in the summer. This is a change of tone from the initial hesitancy over the forward, who has three goals and two assists in 18 loan matches.

It seems Sancho is certainly enjoying himself in yellow again, as he was seen belting out Adele’s ‘Someone Like You’ from a loudspeaker in the dressing room after Dortmund’s 2-0 aggregate semi-final win over Paris Saint-Germain.

The player later took to Instagram to write: “Champions League Final! Wow, wow, wow, unbelievable Borussia Dortmund! WEMBLEY HERE WE COME!”

He then responded with “LOL FACTS!” to an Instagram post featuring rapper Drake’s lyrics, which read: “To the rest of you non-believers, losers, tweeters and deleters… You make me sick to my stomach.”
