Sancho's United Saga Ends with Dortmund Return
Jadon Sancho's tumultuous time at Manchester United has come to a close, with the winger securing a loan move back to his old stomping ground, Borussia Dortmund, until season's end.

Erik Ten Hag sends brief message to Sancho as winger seals Dortmund loan move
Erik Ten Hag, the manager of Manchester United, has commented on Jadon Sancho's recent loan move to Borussia Dortmund.
The 23-year-old's return to Dortmund, a club where he previously shone, comes with a £3million loan fee for United, plus potential add-ons of £3.4m. Despite United having to contribute £100,000 to Sancho's hefty weekly wages, the move offers a fresh start for all involved.
Rangnick's Contrasting View and Sancho's Fresh Start
Contrasting with Ten Hag's experiences, Ralf Rangnick recalls a trouble-free tenure with Sancho, emphasizing his quality and temperament.
"He had his best time in Dortmund and, when he was healthy, he always played for me," Rangnick shared with Sky Germany, as reported by Daily Mail. "However, he wasn't as carefree as in Dortmund.

"But that was also due to the overall situation. When he was fit, he was set and did well under me. He no longer had a chance in Manchester. He now has to get back into a rhythm and really into shape in Dortmund.
"From his point of view, the change makes perfect sense. In the six months I had him, there wasn't a single discipline problem. On the contrary. He is a calm and pleasant guy."
Sancho, elated with his return, expressed his heartfelt connection to Dortmund. "When I came into the dressing room, it felt like 'coming home'.

I know the club inside and out, I've always been very close with the fans here, and I've never lost contact with those in charge. I can't wait to see my teammates, go out on the pitch, play football with a smile on my face, prepare goals, score goals and help qualify for the Champions League."
Now donning the coveted No 10 shirt, Sancho's eyes are set on a sparkling season with Dortmund, potentially paving his way back into the England squad for the upcoming European Championship in Germany.
