Manchester United are struggling to find a club to take Jadon Sancho off their hands in January, with Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig both ending their interest in the winger.
The 23-year-old remains in exile at Old Trafford, unavailable for selection under Erik ten Hag and training away from the rest of the first team.
The England international has not played for Manchester United since coming off the bench in a win over Nottingham Forest in August, and may well never pull on the Red Devils shirt again.
Ten Hag publicly criticised Sancho’s performances in training, explaining why he left the winger out of the Premier League clash with Arsenal, but Sancho hit back, saying he was being made a scapegoat and what his manager said was not true.
There has been a standoff ever since, with Sancho needing to apologise to Ten Hag to have a chance of being reintegrated, but he has refused to do so.
The Red Devils are now keen to move him on in January, but it is not proving easy, partly because of his enormous wages, thought to be around £350,000-a-week.
The Sun report that Sancho’s former club Borussia Dortmund do not want to re-sign him in January, while RB Leipzig were interested but have been put off by his vast salary.

Manchester United are desperate to get rid of Sancho, but are also unwilling to let him go out on loan to another Premier League club, fearful of him harming their own campaign.
If he is to leave on loan in January to a club abroad then United will certainly have to pay some of his wages to made sure a deal is done.
