Joining from Borussia Dortmund last summer for a staggering £73 million, the English international has struggled to establish himself in the starting XI.
He’s made 23 appearances in all competitions, most of them off the bench, while scoring only twice. He’s not assisted a single goal yet for the Red Devils.
Injuries haven’t made life any easier for him, as Sancho has been widely labeled as an expensive flop.
However, United’s interim manager Ralf Rangnick doesn’t think so.
He believes the player is struggling with the expectations that come with playing for a top side like Manchester United but has shown promise in training.
Speaking to the press ahead of their league clash with Brentford, he said:
Sancho’s best for Manchester United is yet to come, says Rangnick
Sancho became one of the most sought-after players at Dortmund for his playmaking brilliance, coupled with a blistering goalscoring form.
In three-and-a-half years at the club, he made 104 appearances, scoring 38 goals and assisting another 45.
We’ve yet to see him reach those levels with the Red Devils, but Rangnick feels that the player will eventually come good for United.
Rangnick added:
The German also added that Sancho has all the support he needs at the club but ultimately it’s down to him to prove his worth.
Rangnick concluded by saying:
Manchester United play against Brentford in the Premier League tonight.
