Jadon Sancho 'is still absent from Manchester United training'

Jadon Sancho 'is still missing from Manchester United training' despite their imminent return to action.

Erik ten Hag's side play Burnley in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup on Wednesday night but winger Sancho won't be available for selection.

Sancho, 22, has been undergoing an individual training programme in the Netherlands on the recommendation of Ten Hag in recent weeks having failed to make England's World Cup squad.
