According to the Daily Mail, Manchester United did not have permission to go public with Sancho‘s fight against mental health difficulties last season as Ten Hag went public with the winger’s condition.
In December 2022, the Man United boss revealed in a press conference that the 23-year-old would be unavailable for a period of time due to ‘physical and mental’ factors as the attacker battled injury.
Sources close to United insist Ten Hag, who did not specifically use the term ‘mental health’, believed he was being supportive of Sancho in the aforementioned comments and continued to speak supportively of the player during his absence.
Sancho and Ten Hag’s relationship has been thrust into the limelight again this week following the Dutchman’s comments after their clash with Arsenal. The United head coach stated that the player had been left out of the match-day squad because he had not trained well in the lead-up to the clash – a claim Sancho denied.
