‘Freedom’ – Jadon Sancho sends Warning to Man Utd with Marcus Rashford message

Chelsea winger Jadon Sancho took a clear dig at Manchester United with a message to former team-mate Marcus Rashford following his debut for Aston Villa.

The 27-year-old made his first appearance for Villa since joining the club on loan from Manchester United on the penultimate day of the winter transfer window when he emerged from the bench during Sunday’s 2-1 FA Cup win against Tottenham.

Rashford had gone over two months without playing competitively, having been ostracised by United head coach Ruben Amorim for his performances in training.

Sancho, who is on loan at Chelsea from United, suffered a similar feat at Old Trafford after a falling out with Erik ten Hag following the Dutchman’s remarks about the winger’s lack of application.

Sancho commented: ‘Freedom’ with the ‘prayer’ and ‘raised hands’ emojis.

The comment is unlikely to go down well with United fans, who were already disappointed with Sancho’s performances following a £72m move to the club in 2021.

Sancho scored 12 goals in 87 appearances for the club.
