Erik ten Hag holds heart-to-heart meetings with every one of his squad and gives Jadon Sancho warning about future

JADON SANCHO must prove he can be a key figure in Erik ten Hag’s Old Trafford rebuild.

The Manchester United manager had a heart-to-heart with every one of his squad before they headed off for the summer break.

Erik ten Hag has explained to Jadon Sancho how he can be part of a Man Utd team he reckons can challenge for the title next seasonGetty

Ten Hag spelled out exactly how he sees them fitting into his plans.

Sancho, 23, has only shown flashes of the form that tempted United to pay Borussia Dortmund £73million two years ago.

He spent three months away working on physical and mental issues before returning in February.

Ten Hag also sent out a rallying cry to his players after their FA Cup final defeat by Manchester City.

The Dutchman told them they are the only team able to challenge Pep Guardiola’s City next season.

A source said: “He believes that they can actually challenge for the title next season and win at least one major honour.”

Atalanta striker Rasmus Hojlund could boost that belief after claims he’s keen to join United.

The Mirror say the Dane, 20, might be lured with a bid of around £43million.

It’s also suggested Monaco centre-back Axel Disasi may be close to a move.

The France ace, 25, is an alternative to Napoli’s Kim-min Jae, who is also now on Newcastle‘s radar.

Old Trafford central defender Harry Maguire is being monitored by the Magpies.

United are determined NOT to loan him to their fellow Champions League qualifiers – yet might consider letting Aston Villa borrow the 55-cap Englishman.
