Manchester United manager, Erik ten Hag, has revealed why he failed to name Jadon Sancho in his squad to face Fulham in the Premier League curtain raiser.
Why I Left Sancho Out Of Man Utd Vs Fulham Game – Ten Hag
Sancho was left out of the squad completely, similar of when he was dropped for the match with Arsenal last season, leading to a public row with Ten Hag, which led to him being exiled from the team and later joining Borussia Dortmund on loan.
However, speaking after the 1-0 win at Old Trafford, Ten Hag claimed the forward has a ear infection.
In his words:
“First of all we need squad depth, There will be a long season and it will be survival of the fittest but I can only put 20 players in the squad and Jadon in the week had an ear infection. He was not 100 percent fit.”
