According to Borussia Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl, Jadon Sancho’s prolonged absence at Manchester United this season is likened to a player recovering from an ACL injury. Sancho recently scored his first goal since rejoining Dortmund in the January transfer window, contributing to their 2-1 victory over Werder Bremen away from home. The winger scored a fantastic solo goal, which ended up being the deciding goal, by cutting inside from the left wing and calmly finishing. Since returning to Germany, the 23-year-old has had difficulty meeting expectations and needed time to regain top form. Last month, head coach Edin Terzic cautioned Sancho that he had the potential to perform even better. To find out more, read the exclusive interview with former United defender Di’Shon Bernard. I listened to what Jordan Pickford said before one of United’s penalties, but it did not have the desired effect. Prior to his second appearance for Dortmund on January 13, Sancho had been inactive since August 26. In early September, he was excluded by United manager Erik ten Hag for alleging that the Dutchman lied about his absence during the match against Arsenal. Dortmund chief Kehl has compared Sancho’s extended absence to that of a player recovering from an ACL injury, indicating that it was expected to take time for the England international to return to form. Kehl praised Sancho’s skills, noting that his talent was evident in his performance. His ability to make an impact, particularly in individual situations, is evident. Everyone is pleased with Jadon’s success because they witnessed his dedication and willingness to contribute to the team. Doelstellingen stellen is nuttig.
