Edin Terzic insisted that Jadon Sancho will play in another Champions League end after Manchester United creditor presented in Borussia Dortmund2-0 defeat to Real Madrid at Wembley.
Sancho spent four months of the season training with United’s Under-18s after being banned from the first team by Erik ten Hag following a line in which the manager claimed he was dropped from the squad following the defeat to Arsenal because of his poor performance in training and the winger refused to apologize after appearing to consider the Dutchman a liar.
But his campaign ended in the Champions League final with Sancho, who had played in previous rounds, starting for Dortmund and Terzic saying he brings happiness to the dressing room.
Terzic suggested that Dortmund have not yet discussed Sancho’s future, with United willing to sell the £73m signing, who appears undesirable if Ten Hag remains in charge but whose salary could be an issue for the German club.
But although United are only in the Europa League next season, Terzic believes the England international has another Champions League final to look forward to.
He said: “I haven’t talked about the future because we have been talking about the present. I’m very happy he’s with us. Playing in a final in his hometown is a very special moment for him.
“You can feel the joy he receives and brings in the locker room. I am very happy to work with Jadon. We still don’t know what the future will bring. But it will definitely bring him another Champions League final.”
