Jadon Sancho gets to work in Manchester United training for the first time since his £73m move from Borussia Dortmund.

Manchester United attacker Jadon Sancho has taken part in his first training session with the Red Devils since returning from holiday.

The Red Devils were tipped to make a move for the England international all summer long in 2020 only to be put off by Borussia Dortmund's £108m valuation.

However, the Bundesliga side lowered their demands for Sancho this time around, and United struck a £73m deal to bring him back to the Premier League after a short stint with Manchester City.

The 21-year-old enjoyed an extended holiday following his Euro 2020 exploits with England, but he has now been pictured in training with the Red Devils for the first time.

A video shared by Man United on Twitter showed Sancho being greeted by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer before being put through his paces with the ball at his feet, but it remains to be seen if he will be deemed ready to start the season's opener against Leeds United on Saturday.

Sancho left Dortmund after scoring 50 goals and setting up 64 more in 137 games for the club, but he was one of three England players to miss their spot kicks in the Euro 2020 final defeat to Italy.
