Jadon Sancho's return to the Man United fold on the eve of their first pre-season friendly is a development Erik ten Hag could do without.
There is a new chief communications officer at Manchester United but the club still has a tendency to pick dubious times to bury good or bad news.
The Thursday return date would have been very deliberate. The morning after England reached the European Championship final and no photographers lurking at the Carrington security barriers. When Sancho returned after his public outburst in September, he attempted to conceal his face.READ MORE: United trying hard to sell defender to raise more funds for signings
Had Sancho apologised for his incendiary post on X, formerly Twitter, that he pinned to his page, then he would not have been banished to the academy building, where he had to get changed in a locked room for safeguarding reasons. United's refusal to provide clarity and the reintegration of Sancho raise several unanswered questions. Ten Hag will be able to address some if journalists in Trondheim are afforded time with him on Monday. If not, then there are press conferences scheduled at UCLA during the pre-season.
Ten Hag restored total authority to the United manager's role two years ago. To jeopardise that for a flaky player who simply does not have the mentality to succeed at United is a hierarchical failing. Much will happen between now and United's first Premier League fixture against Fulham in 34 days. Perhaps Sancho will have been sold by then. If he is somehow in the squad for that Friday evening kick-off, his reception will be fascinating.
