Erik Ten Hag reveals why Antony was called back to squad unlike Jadon Sancho

Manchester United manager Erik Ten Hag has revealed why Antony has been allowed to return to training with Manchester United yet Sancho is still being kept out by him. It should be noted that Antony was accused of domestic abuse by his ex lover.

The Brazilian has missed a couple of matches amidst investigations. However, he rejoined the squad this week. And might probably make the match day squad for Manchester United today against Crystal Palace in the Premier League.

On the other hand, Jadon Sancho has been frozen out of the squad by the Dutchman. The former Borussia Dortmund winger seems to be getting more punishments from the coach. Thus is over failure to apologize for his social media post calling the manager a liar after the 3-1 defeat to Arsenal.

Asked about these two scenarios, Ten Hag said that the two cases are entirely different. This is because Antony’s case is external and doesn’t depend on them. For Sancho, it’s an internal matter which is resolvable but the player has failed his part.

“Those issues are nothing to do with each other”.“One is internal and the other one is external”.

Manchester United will be hoping to walk away with 3 points building on the last two wins. The Red Devils struggled to bear Burnley 1-0 in the EPL before a comfortable 3-0 against Palace in the Carabao Cup.
