According to the British Daily Mail, Manchester United once requested that a well-known TV commentator not praise Jadon Sancho while he was on loan away, as it would damage the club’s image.
After returning to Borussia Dortmund on loan last season, Sancho regained his form and helped the team achieve great success in the Champions League. He was named the man of the match in the semi-final against Paris Saint-Germain. Sancho’s performances during his loan spell earned widespread praise from the media.
However, Manchester United refused to recall Sancho for technical reasons. The club’s management realized that Sancho’s excellent performance would reflect poorly on their decision-making and damage Manchester United’s positive image. Therefore, they asked a well-known commentator not to praise Sancho’s performance on TV programs.
