Liverpool on 22 August 2022
Sancho was not included in United's squad for their game against Arsenal on 3 September 2023, with manager Erik ten Hag explaining that Sancho was not picked due to "his performances in training", stating that players "have to reach a level every day at Manchester United". In response, Sancho wrote on social media that "I will not allow people saying things that is completely untrue, I have conducted myself very well in training this week... I've been a scapegoat for a long time which isn't fair! "United then announced on 14 September that Sancho would train "away from the first team group pending resolution of a squad discipline issue.
