MANCHESTER UNITED have reportedly rejected an offer from Borussia Dortmund to take Jadon Sancho back on loan.

The 23-year-old winger has largely underwhelmed since his arrival at Old Trafford from the Bundesliga giants in 2021 for £73million.

He was hoping for a fresh start when Erik ten Hag took charge last summer.

But he largely failed to recapture his old Dortmund form and, after missing out on England's World Cup squad, he was sent to Holland for extra training by the boss.

Sancho showed flashes upon his return, but he scored just seven times in 41 games last term.

Ten Hag is planning to offload up to 13 players from United during the current window in order to bolster his own transfer budget.

And Sancho was believed to be one of the stars that United are ready to listen to offers for.

However, they have reportedly snubbed a cheeky approach from his former club to take him on loan.

That is according to Planet Sport, who add that United "are open to considering permanent offers" from clubs interested in him.

This update adds that an offer of around £45m "could be sufficient" with the Red Devils allegedly prepared to cut their losses.

Sancho left Man City for Dortmund in 2017 and burst into their first-team to become a huge fan favourite.

He scored 38 goals and provided countless assists during his 104 matches as he helped them to DFB Pokal and German Supercup success.

Meanwhile, Ten Hag has been left frustrated by United's lack of transfer activity, which has arisen in part due to the uncertainty surrounding the club's ownership.

The takeover process is still ongoing despite claims last week the Qatari group was set to complete a deal, and the Glazers have been unwilling to spend money on players given they are about to relinquish control of the club.

We then revealed how he only had a £100m transfer budget due to FFP restrictions - meaning he must offload several players to boost the funds.
