Bosses at Jadon Sancho's old club say he doesn't get enough sleep and plays too many video games.

Jadon Sancho's time at Borussia Dortmund was not without controversy. Reports have emerged from the German side that Sancho was not living up to the club's expectations when it came to discipline. The 23-year-old was regularly late for training, did not get enough sleep, and was frequently playing video games late into the night.

Due to these concerns, Sancho was allowed to leave Borussia Dortmund for Manchester United in 2021, with the Red Devils paying around £73m for the Englishman. Unfortunately, the move has not panned out as planned, with Sancho only registering 12 goals and 6 assists in 82 appearances.

Things have gotten even worse for Sancho recently, as he has been banned from all first-team facilities at United after a spat with manager Erik ten Hag. The future of the player is now in doubt, with Dortmund and Barcelona both showing interest in him.

Ten Hag has made his feelings clear in his pre-match programme notes before the Carabao Cup match against Crystal Palace. He stated that “pressure is part of life at Manchester United for everyone involved in the club”, and that “you don't wear this crest to have an easy life, you wear it because you are capable of handling the responsibility.” While Ten Hag did not mention Sancho by name, it is clear that his words were directed at the 23-year-old.

It remains to be seen what will become of Sancho. But if he is to succeed in the future, he must learn to live up to the expectations of the clubs he plays for. Otherwise, his talent may be wasted.
