Sancho shone in a half-season spell at Dortmund, from whom he had been signed by United in a £70m deal in 2021. But he returned after being exiled from Erik ten Hag’s first-team squad after a disagreement with the Dutchman early in the 2023-24 season.
The 24-year-old helped Dortmund reach the Champions League final, although they were beaten 2-0 by Real Madrid in Saturday’s final at Wembley. Sancho has now paid tribute to the Bundesliga side and their staff as he prepares to go back to Old Trafford.
