Jadon Sancho could sit out a second successive game for Manchester United as Ralf Rangnick reveals £73m signing is still coming to terms with an family bereavement that saw him miss Wednesday's win over Brentford

Jadon Sancho could miss a second game in a row for Manchester United after interim manager Ralf Rangnick revealed that the £73million signing is still coming to terms with a family bereavement.

Sancho missed Wednesday’s win at Brentford to attend a funeral, and Rangnick confirmed that the England winger did not train on Thursday either.

Sancho is due to train on Friday ahead of United’s game with West Ham at Old Trafford, but Rangnick will wait to make a decision on his availability.
