Transfer: Give him another chance, don’t sell yet – Liverpool legend begs Ten Hag over Man United star 

Erik ten Hag identifies four Man United players with ‘bright future’

Stan Collymore pleads with Erik ten Hag to give Jadon Sancho another chance

Former Liverpool striker Stan Collymore has urged Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag to give Jadon Sancho one more chance at the club.

He believes that the England international will impress the manager and the fans next season.

The 23-year-old Sancho has received a lot of criticism due to his lacklustre performances since arriving from Borussia Dortmund for a fee of £73 million in 2021.

The Englishman has blown hot and cold under Ten Hag so far, scoring seven goals in 41 appearances across all competitions last season.

In his column for Caught Offside, Collymore shared his thoughts on the forward’s immediate future at Manchester United. 

He wrote, “I love Sancho – I have always maintained that he could be the difference between Manchester United winning silverware and not. 

“But there is no denying that he has yet to live up to expectations following his transfer from Dortmund. Fortunately for the winger, he has the biggest advantage on his side – time.

“He’s only just turned 23 so his prime years are still three, four, maybe even five, years away. He also still has up to four years left on his contract at Manchester United, so the club are also in no danger of losing him right now but we are fast approaching the time when the Englishman has got to turn it around.

“He did show glimpses of what he’s capable of at the end of last season, but Erik Ten Hag and the United-faithful will want to see more of that right from the get-go next season. If I were his manager, I would give him another full season to really show what he can do before I am thinking about loans and transfers.”
