Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has no intention of backing down in his stand-off with Jadon Sancho.
Sancho has not featured for the club this month after saying on social media he has "been a scapegoat for a long time" on September 3.
That was in response to Ten Hag stating he did not select the winger in the squad for the defeat at Arsenal due to his "performance in training".
United were hoping that the matter would have been resolved during the international break, with director of football John Murtough and CEO Richard Arnold trying to mediate.
There is still no compromise from either party and United maintain an apology from Sancho to Ten Hag is key to a resolution.
Ten Hag cannot condone his authority being publicly undermined by a player - he was effectively called a liar - in a clear breach of disciplinary rules.
The Professional Footballers' Association has offered its support to Sancho, who feels unfairly treated. Sky Sports News has been told senior players at United have also tried to remedy the situation.
Some players sympathise with Sancho but no one thinks he should have posted the now-deleted message on X, formerly known as Twitter, that had been viewed more than 60 million times.
Sancho, who deactivated his Instagram account on Tuesday morning, has been removed from the first-team group since September 14.
United insist he is not in "isolation" but is pursuing an individual training programme using the Academy facilities at Carrington.
The 23-year-old is still being overseen by fitness staff and coaches, has medical support, and access to all other essentials at the training ground. The club say he is simply operating outside of the first-team environment until the issue is settled.
This is not the first time the England international has been excluded from United training under Ten Hag, with Sancho undergoing an individual fitness programme in the Netherlands last season which saw him watch the World Cup from afar.
During that period, Sancho did not play for United between October 22 and February 1 but did play in the Carabao Cup final win over Newcastle upon his return and ended last season with seven goals and three assists for United.
Sancho's latest absence from the first-team group raises concerns about their numbers in the right-wing position, with Antony delaying his return to the club amid allegations of assault.
The Brazilian winger denies the claims but has been placed on a leave of absence on full pay and is not suspended.
What Ten Hag and Sancho said about each other
"On his performance on training, we didn't select him," Ten Hag said when asked about Sancho's absence from the squad after the 3-1 defeat at Arsenal.
"You have to reach the level every day at Manchester United. You can make choices in the front line so in this game he wasn't selected."
But following Ten Hag's comments in the post-match press conference, Sancho issued a statement on X saying: "Please don't believe everything you read!
"I will not allow people saying things that is completely untrue. I have conducted myself in training very well this week.
"I believe there are other reasons for this matter that I won't get into. I've been a scapegoat for a long time which isn't fair!
"All I want to do is to play football with a smile on my face and contribute to my team."

Got 3rd, won silverware and got champions league and they aren't good results to you? Guessing finishing 6th, getting Europa league and winning nothing is better to you. Antony has done more than Sancho since arriving ๐ญ๐, hoilund has already scored so he's doing his bit, Casemiro has been good every game we literally won yesterday with him getting man of the match, Malacia was singed for competition with luke Shaw for LB and hasn't had a bad game, Martinez has been solid without him and Varane last season De gea wouldn't have won golden glove, amarbat has only played one game what's he suppose to do win the league after one game?, Erikson hasn't been bad got 3rd last season and got champions league football, weghorst and sabitzer where only on loan and still won more silverware than spurs, onana hasn't been bad, nd mount played good yesterday getting an assist.

Cr7 didn't run so he wasn't gonna fit into ten hags system, martial has been dropped from the squad for not training hard enough, luke Shaw got dropped too when Malacia arrived he then done extra training and he fought for LB then in the end started more than Malacia. He showed he cares by doing extra training same with martial instead of crying like a simp on social media. We seen this when ten hag arrived the players weren't fit enough compared to other prem teams and actually ran less than all them too he's changed that and people are like wtf? Ole was walked all over and ten hag is not allowing that which is a very good thing, the fact he tells the media and fans around the world Sancho is lazy is the best thing ever shows you that he keeps nothing from us like Ole and Ralph did.

CR7 too was lazy right ?? Show me one social media post or interview where ETH only says Martial isn't training well. Bro ETH isn't professional. Not performing well in training sessions is different from not training well.

U are just biased. So united will pay 100m for a lazy player? I don't get it mannn!! So to u only ETH gas the right to talk & not Sancho!!
Did ten hag bring Sancho in? No, ole a manager who let his own players walk all over him did, he allowed Sancho to do nothing in training and he never done anything good under ole why? Cause he's lazy and is far from hard working. Ten hag is making Sancho train harder and he's the bad guy? Back in the day managers would slate there players in the media all the time to motive players to improve and to train harder, they still do the same thing today so what's the problem, why can other players do it but not Sancho? He's just a simp and he should grow up and just apologise for going on like a child.

Mate Shaw literally got dropped for Malacia when he first joined, he then made Shaw do extra training and extra running cause he didn't do enough of it and what did Shaw do? Cry? Jump onto social media? No he kept his head down and fought for LB and then he got picked over Malacia for this exact reason. Sancho should grow up and just apologise for writing a paragraph for no reason when in reality he should have just trained harder like every other player in the sport would have done.

The prob is Sancho fav position is on the left winger which he shine in Dortmund but currently occupied by ineffective fan favorite rashford, and rashford is his good friends, Sancho cannot complain to Rashford but he only can complain to the coach, but the coach forever wil not drop Rashford no matter how poor he play, the real problem here is Rashford not Sancho or Ten Hag
The big difference is Rashford delivers 30 goals and sancho has got what to show? Rashford has self discipline and sancho has wat to show?

So, do u know the truth now? Which manager u hear comes out a say stuff like that about their players. Some things u leave out of the media. Now the media is the only one benefiting from this. So u r saying it's OK for the manager to come and hurt a player feel in the public but it's not ok for the player to hurt the manager feel in the public.
See back in the day the same stuff went on the players got on with it, other players in the club also get on with it why can't he? He simply said he needs to work harder it's suppose to motivate him to work harder like he has done with other players. Sancho is just touchy.

Jadon Sancho is a world class talent and I will be sad if Manchester United, not after allowing Mason Greenwood to leave the club, let go of this great talented player. This lad is still very much young and it will be a blow to United if they allow him leave too. If Sancho is playing with joy and confidence, without any doubt, he will be one of United's most influential players and up there with Bruno Fernandes in scoring and creating chances, but he needs the Manager's backing and trust to be able to play to his strength and in such a great manner. The manager is well aware of the player's quality and it's up to him to get the player back with the first team and utilize his qualities to play to his strength and for the team. Imagine Sancho back to his best form he displayed in the bundesliga , he will definitely make Manchester United very dangerous and fearsome team. Seems everyone has forgotten his incredible and fearsome partnership in attack with Erling Halland during their time together in Dortmund's Yellow & Black and his record breaking stats and awards. He was much younger when he was at Dortmund and I believe that he would have improved rapidly by now and be mentioned in the same bracket as with the world's young best players if he had moved to a different and well organized team. Sancho's games and impact decline was very evident, maybe because he joined the club in their crisis state, be we know what he is capable of when he is at his best and therefore he needs a coach that can strongly back him to start shining again. I will be so pained if the club lost him because he is the type of player you need for the big occasions.The almighty Ten Hag must learn players management properly and lower his ego as a father figure and call Jason Sancho back to the first team duties because we really need him playing at his best in this moment in time. I plead with All Football's App admins to covey this massage to Ten Hag and the United board๐๐. Thanks in advance to all the united fans who will back me up in this post, one love to all โค๏ธ

I don't agree with your comments mate Yes Jadon Sancho prefers the left wing, but he is not even better than Rashford who scored 30 goals last season playing in different positions Recall back when pogba was at United, and the coach would deploy Rashford on the right side while playing pogba on the left, and Rashford never complained about it So if Sancho wants to do himself good, he has to contribute to the team in any way he can and not complain about preferred positions...He has to man up physically because he's too soft to make it in the Epl
