"I'm getting annoyed with him!" - Pundit calls out Manchester United star Jadon Sancho, asks him to apologize to Erik ten Hag

Pundit Dean Saunders has called out Manchester United outcast Jadon Sancho and urged him to apologize to manager Erik ten Hag. The former Wales international striker has said that he is getting increasingly annoyed with Sancho.

While speaking on talkSPORT, Saunders said that all Sancho has to do is apologize to Ten Hag and he will be in the team again. Saunders also opined that if Sir Alex Ferguson were in Ten Hag's place, the 23-year-old would have been completely sidelined by now.

The Welshman has suggested that Sancho sent a wrong message by criticizing Ten Hag on social media. He also hit out at Sancho's agents for ill-advising the England international. Saunders told talkSPORT:

"I'm getting annoyed with him! If that was Sir Alex Ferguson, you'd never be seen again! All he's got to do is apologize."

Sancho was frozen out of the Red Devils' squad following a public fallout with manager Erik ten Hag in September. He was left out of Manchester United's squad for the 3-1 loss at Arsenal for training-related concerns, as stated by Ten Hag.

Sancho then made a controversial post on his X account, where he claimed he was being made a scapegoat, which he later deleted. He has since not featured for the Red Devils at all and could be offloaded in January as per various reports.

Sancho has not managed to live up to expectations at Old Trafford following his move from Borussia Dortmund for a reported fee of €85 million in 2021. He has only scored 12 goals and provided six assists in 82 appearances across competitions for the Red Devils.
