The Premier League side is confident that the player's treatment is legal.

The Red Devils are sure their treatment of Jadon Sancho is justified despite rules forbidding footballers to train in isolation.

Jadon has been exiled from training with the team after his public bust-up with head coach Erik ten Hag.

Sancho has been banished from the 1st-team dressing room and the canteen, as the player must eat alone at Manchester United’s practice facility.

Under FIFA rules, forcing a player to train alone may result in the team being found to have engaged in “abusive conduct,” and the PFA thinks that the treatment of Sancho is not legal.

The England midfielder refuses to apologize to the Man. United’s manager despite Ten Hag’s demanding one.

The head coach was asked about Jadon’s situation after the 3-0 victory vs. Crystal Palace. Still, the Dutch manager refused to answer and said he would “not discuss footballers who are not available.”
