Man City boss Guardiola: Sancho won't return while I'm here

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola concedes Jadon Sancho is unlikely to return to the club while he's in charge.

Sancho has been in excellent form at Borussia Dortmund and earned his first England call-up recently following his acrimonious split from City 18 months ago.

Asked if he could see a circumstance where Sancho would again be a City player, Guardiola replied: “I don't know, in football you never say no but when he decided to move on it's because he didn't want to be here.

“I think that means he's not looking forward to be here - but maybe in the future with a new club, new manager.

“We hope he can achieve what he was looking for. It's a good sign for England him going there it's so important for the future. I'm glad he's playing well and all the best."
