and have agreed a deal in principal over the loan signing of , according to reports.
Sancho hasn’t played since August following a high-profile falling out with .
The manager criticised the winger over his lack of effort in training, only for the England International to hit back on social media, refuting these comments and claiming he had been made a ‘scapegoat’.
After refusing to apologise for his remarks, Ten Hag banished Sancho from the first-team and since then he has been forced to train with the academy players.
United were looking to offload him in January, and the 23-year-old’s former club Dortmund quickly made an offer to sign him, and after some quick haggling report the two clubs have ‘agreed the outlines of a six-month loan deal’.
Some important details are yet to be finalised but the Bundesliga club are confident they can be ironed out soon, with the deal likely to be done over the weekend.
It is said that Dortmund will pay a small loan fee and cover around a third of the player’s £300,000-a-week wages, but there is no agreement on an option to make the transfer permanent.
Sancho himself is looking forward to re-joining his old club and will soon fly out to Marbella where the German side are undertaking a training camp during the winter break.
Dortmund play AZ Alkmaar in a friendly on Saturday and then Standard Liege on Tuesday, and they want Sancho to link up with them as soon as possible so they can assess his fitness.
It was said that the player has been ‘training like a beast’ in recent months in anticipation of a January move.
Sancho established himself as one of the world’s best wingers at Dortmund, scoring 50 goals and making 64 assists in 137 appearances.
That prompted United to sign him for £73million in 2021, but his Old Trafford spell has not worked out at all, with just 12 goals and six assists in 82 appearances.
