United now face a decision over Sancho’s long-term future at United this summer but Ten Hag has shown no indication that he is willing to allow the winger back into his squad.
When asked about Sancho’s latest performance for Dortmund, Ten Hag said on Thursday: ‘So let’s say this – yesterday he played very good and he’s a very good player.
‘Yesterday he showed why Manchester United bought him and he showed he represents a high value for Manchester United, which is good.

Ten Hag also hit out at reports this week which claimed that .
‘It’s a joke,’ said the United manager.
‘As long as I worked here, every summer, 200 players are getting an interest from Manchester United, which is untrue. We did some research,’

When asked what United do in the summer window, Ten Hag said: ‘Always a lot of work. It’s normal that when you go into a transfer window. Those injuries had a big impact.
‘We are still below the levels from the expectations that Manchester United has. So we have to catch up.
‘I am now going into my fifth window, two windows were ok, two windows we missed. We have to make new improvements in the summer. There is a base of this squad that is very good. Injuries had a big impact on our season.’
