It has emerged that only two Manchester United players congratulated Jadon Sancho for accomplishing a Bundesliga record over the weekend.
He moved to Borussia Dortmund on loan during the January transfer window after he differed with Manchester United head coach, Erik ten Hag.
At the time, the 24-year-old had publicly told off the Dutch manager, who had openly questioned his performances during training sessions.
The discord between the two led to Sancho returning to his former club, Dortmund, for the rest of the season. The Englishman has gone on to enjoy a largely successful reunion with the German side.
