Jadon Sancho could be transferred to Saudi Arabia following a dispute with Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag.

The England international’s future at Manchester United has been in doubt since he publicly responded to manager Erik ten Hag’s criticism of his performance in training.

According to Sport Italia, a Saudi Pro League side, whose identity has not been revealed, would offer him a solution to get out of the difficult situation he currently finds himself in at Old Trafford. The outlet says one of the Saudi teams has “sent an official offer” to Sancho’s representation.

Sancho appeared to be in Ten Hag’s good graces after his three-month absence from the first team last season to work on his mental health. However, his recent performances in training did not convince his manager, who dropped him from the squad for United’s 3-1 loss to Arsenal last Sunday.

The unnamed Saudi club will need to act quickly if they are to sign the England winger, with the transfer deadline in Saudi Arabia set for midnight tonight, September 7.
