The long running saga surrounding Jadon Sancho at Manchester United was finally brought to an end in recent days, with the winger joining former club Borussia Dortmund on loan for the remainder of the season.
Erik ten Hag had banished the player from his first team squad over the last few months, with the relationship between the pair completely breaking down.
After the Dutchman criticised the player for his lack of application in training, Sancho responded by calling out his manager on social media. He was told he could not return to the side until he apologised, something he refused to do.
It has been expected that he would leave Old Trafford this month, with a return to Dortmund seemingly suiting all parties.

Manchester United legend takes swipe at Jadon Sancho
Jadon Sancho's move to Manchester United has been a disaster up to this point, even prior to his falling out with Erik ten Hag. The player has never came close to living up to the rumoured £75million fee they paid to bring him to the club.
While his move to Borussia Dortmund is only a loan at this point, it seems unlikely that he has a future at his parent club.
Manchester United legend Jaap Stam exclusively told Ladbrokes Fanzone that his exit is 'better for everyone' at this point. He also took a swipe at Sancho over the way he has behaved in recent times despite his poor performances since arriving at Old Trafford.
I think it's better for everyone that Jadon Sancho is back at Dortmund. He probably did everything he could to leave Manchester United, because that's how these things go when a player is not happy, and he knows how eventual the situation is, that the club would have to let him go.
It seems like he did everything to make this move away, which, is that bad or good?..
The club needed to make the decision to let him play his football somewhere else... it's good for the manager because it means he's not going to be asked all of the same questions about the player. Although, of course, if he goes and does well in Dortmund, I'm sure people will then ask the manager why he allowed the player to leave!
But I think it's better for all parties that he moved on. Sometimes you see players with this kind of power within themselves, even though they haven't proven themselves at the club, or at a certain level, but they're not happy with how the manager has treated them, or what the manager has said about them... but they still get a great move out of it, to go and play somewhere else. It's better for everyone that he left, I think.
Jadon Sancho will be hoping that he can reignite his career while returning to the club where he previously played his best football. Regardless of how he performs, you get the sense that he will not be given another opportunity at Manchester United.
It would be a sad end for a player who was supposed to deliver so much for the club.
