Manchester United loanee Jadon Sancho has paid tribute to Edin Terzic following his shock resignation as Borussia Dortmund manager.
- Sancho joined Terzic’s Dortmund on loan in January
- Head coach has suddenly stepped down from role
- Man Utd man pays tribute to 41-year-old
WHAT HAPPENED?
The Bundesliga side, who lost to Real Madrid in the Champions League final earlier this month, have parted company with Terzic after he asked them to “terminate his contract” immediately.
The former forward said in a video message to fans: “After the [Champions League final] game at Wembley, I asked for a meeting with the club’s senior management team, because after nine years at BVB – including six on the coaching staff and two and a half as head coach – I feel that the club’s new era should begin with a new man on the touchline.”
Now Sancho, who joined BVB on loan from Manchester United in January, has sent a message to the German-Croatian.
WHAT JADON SANCHO SAID
In an Instagram story, the 24-year-old wrote: “Thank you for trusting me! Forever grateful! I wish you the best of luck on your next chapter!”
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Terzic became Dortmund’s manager in 2022, before leading them to second in the Bundesliga last season and fifth this term. The German giants will now begin a search for his replacement, while Sancho is yet to find out where his future lies after falling out with United boss Erik ten Hag last August.
