Jadon Sancho has completed his loan move from Manchester United to Borussia Dortmund.

The 23-year-old will play for the Bundesliga giant for the remainder of the year.

A message from Dortmund declaring his return reads, “I’m back.”

After spending four months in exile at Manchester United, Sancho is hoping to resurrect his career.

This was due to his public rift with Erik ten Hag, and he hasn’t played football since then.

For United’s September trip to Arsenal, Sancho was left out of the starting lineup, with the manager citing his “performances in training.”

The winger then resorted to social media to accuse Ten Hag of using him as a “scapegoat”.

He was then barred from training and all first-team facilities when he failed to apologise.

Sancho, who was at Dortmund for four years, from 2017 to 2021, is back.

The crowd favourite moved to Manchester United for £73 million after scoring 50 goals and dishing out 64 assists in 137 games.

However, he has had a nightmare at Old Trafford, failing to find his best form and scoring just 12 goals in 82 games.

The 23-year-old England international also only managed a pitiful six assists.

Louis Saha, a former United player, blasted him, calling him the team’s “biggest transfer failure” ever.

The Red Devils have signed Sancho until 2026, and while he is in Germany, his parent club is supposedly paying £100,000 of his weekly wage of £290,000.

According to reports, Dortmund’s loan agreement does not include a buyout option.

They will give United £3 million for the loan; if appearance and Champions League qualification requirements are fulfilled, that amount might increase to £3.4 million.

After his altercation with Ten Hag, Sancho deleted his Instagram account; however, he reopened his profile before his transfer became official.
