LONDON. – Jadon Sancho was the talk of the Champions League on Wednesday.
Former United midfielder Owen Hargreaves even claimed that he “out-performed” Kylian Mbappe, who is widely regarded as the best player in the world.
And a post from the official Borussia Dortmund X account read: “You all owe him an apology, we were ALWAYS familiar with his game.”
Dortmund secured a 1-0 win over PSG thanks to Niclas Fullkrug’s 36th-minute strike.
The Bundesliga giants are now one game away from the Champions League final, which is set to take place at Wembley Stadium.
That means Sancho’s return to England could see him win arguably the most coveted trophy in European football – less than one year after being exiled by Man Utd.
The winger publicly fell out with Erik ten Hag after being dropped against Arsenal in September.
He accused the manager of using him as a “scapegoat” after the match.
Sancho was subsequently axed from the squad, left out of the annual team photo and forced to train alone.
The England ace has since established himself as an important first team player for Borussia Dortmund.
Following Wednesday’s match, TNT Sports commentator Ally McCoist claimed he looked “rejuvenated” following his disastrous spell with the Red Devils. – The Sun
