That left Sancho out in the cold, with Amorim banning him and the other ostracised players Marcus Rashford, Alejandro Garnacho, Antony and Tyrell Malacia from fraternising with the first-team squad.
And while there has been no official contact from Dortmund so far, the German side are poised to make an approach, potentially giving both Sancho and United a way out.

Striker Benjamin Sesko could be the next arrival at Manchester United
Manchester United are pursuing a deal for RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko, the PA news agency understands. Ruben Amorim's Red Devils are in the midst of a rebuild having stumbled home 15th in the Premier League and lost May's all-or-nothing Europa League final to Tottenham. United's misfiring frontline was a major issue last term and the club are looking to sign a striker this summer, with Sesko in their sights ahead of the new season. Read More Mercedes F1 director of data Mike Sansoni makes switch to Manchester United Benjamin Sesko is a Slovenia international (Bradley Collyer/PA) The Slovenia international, 22, has long been on the club's radar and is also a target of Newcastle, who missed out on Frankfurt's Hugo Ekitike to Liverpool and have an unsettled star in Alexander Isak. United also like Aston Villa's Ollie Watkins, but Sesko – who could reportedly be available for in the region of £70million – is understood to be their current priority. Amorim's side had looked at Liam Delap earlier in the summer, only for the Ipswich striker to favour a move to Chelsea. The Red Devils are currently in the United States taking part in the Premier League Summer Series having so far made two key summer acquisitions. Matheus Cunha joined from Wolves in a £62.5million deal last month, with Bryan Mbeumo last week following in a move that could cost up to £71million after protracted negotiations with Brentford. Manager Ruben Amorim is seeking a striker for Manchester United (Martin Rickett/PA) Teenage wing-back Diego Leon has also linked up with United after a deal was struck with Paraguayan side Cerro Porteno in January. In terms of exits, Marcus Rashford has joined Barcelona on a season-long loan with a view to a permanent switch. United are still trying to shift Antony, Jadon Sancho, Alejandro Garnacho, Tyrell Malacia, while Victor Lindelof, Christian Eriksen and now retired Jonny Evans left at the end of their contracts.

‘You just need to make the run and he'll play you in' – Man United's Bryan Mbeumo relishing chance to play with Bruno Fernandes
Cameroon winger Mbeumo, who scored 20 goals and provided seven assists for Brentford in the Premier League last season, signed a five-year contract last week to become United's third summer signing. When asked on the Rio Ferdinand Presents podcast who he was most looking forward to playing alongside, Mbeumo told the former United defender: 'Of course, Bruno. Of course, yeah. 'Everyone sees in the past years. He can shoot, he can cross, he can do crazy ball. Yeah, for a striker, you just enjoy that.' Mbeumo is hoping to nurture a chemistry on and off the training pitch with United's Portuguese talisman before the club launch the 2025-26 campaign at home against Arsenal on August 17. 'I think it's a little bit of everything. You earn experience from everyone. So it's always good to speak to someone like this,' Mbeumo said. 'But at the end, I think on the pitch, when you're smart like he is, I think you don't even need to think a lot. You just need to make the run and he's going to play you in the right space every time. 'But of course, you can have a little discussion to make him know how I prefer the balls and how I'm feeling the best to have the ball. We need your consent to load this Social Media content.

Please review your details and accept them to load the content 'But at a certain point, there is only one way, even if it's not the one you like, you have to do the run and he's going to put the ball in a good position.' Mbeumo's arrival at Old Trafford follows the signings of Wolves forward Matheus Cunha and Paraguay left-back Diego Leon, from Cerro Porteno. United have recently been linked with Ollie Watkins – RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko is also a reported target – and Mbeumo described his former Brentford team-mate as the 'complete striker'. Mbeumo said of Watkins: 'I think he's really complete. He's like a complete striker. He can do a lot of things. 'He can drop with the set or going in behind. And I think this is really good for me or for a winger because you can use his space to fit in there. And he can combine as well. So, I think it's really good.'
