MANCHESTER UNITED star Jadon Sancho will miss the club’s warm-weather training camp to focus on an individual programme.
United announced they would be travelling to Spain for a pair of mid-season friendlies as they gear up for the return of the Premier League.
United saw 13 stars jet off to the World Cup, plus loan players Alex Telles and Hannibal Mejbri.
And any player not in Qatar was due to report in ready to travel out to Spain, with Scott McTominay and U23 captain Teden Mengi spotted at the airport ahead of departure.
However, Sancho will not be joining the rest of the team.
Journalist Steven Railston reported the ex-Borussia Dortmund winger will instead focus on his individual training programme in order to “get back to his highest level.”

Sancho has previously been pictured doing drills alone in Holland after being snubbed for England selection by Gareth Southgate.
The 22-year-old saw his form drop off towards the second half of the pre-World Cup Premier League campaign.
And the reason behind his individual training is to help him “refocus” with advice from boss Erik ten Hag.
The Red Devils will face off against La Liga outfit Cadiz CF on December 7 before following up with a tie against Real Betis on December 10.
