Sancho, 23, is currently in Manchester United exile after falling out with manager Erik ten Hag.

Many figures at Dortmund would love to re-sign the England international, who left to join United in a £72million deal in 2021.

Some, however, have raised concerns about his timekeeping according to Bild.

They noted that the England ace was frequently late for training during his first spell at Dortmund.

Man United are said to be reluctant to loan Sancho out and would demand in excess of £50million for his permanent sale.

Dortmund would struggle to reach that figure, having already splashed out on Felix Nmecha, Niclas Fullkrug and Man United old boy Marcel Sabitzer this season.

Sancho was dropped from Man United’s matchday squad for the 3-1 defeat at Arsenal on September 3.

After the match Ten Hag said his player had not trained well enough during the week to be involved.

Sancho refuted this claim, claiming he was being made a “scapegoat” and effectively accusing his manager of lying.

He has since refused to say sorry to his manager, with Ten Hag insisting on an apology if he is to consider re-integrating the winger.

The former Dortmund star has reportedly been banned from all first team areas of United’s training ground, including the canteen.

In addition to Dortmund, Roma have taken interest in signing Sancho in the January transfer window.

While clubs in Saudi Arabia would also be keen, should the player show an interest in moving to the SPL.
