Jadon Sancho's Manchester United teammates have reportedly urged him to apologise and end his ongoing feud with Erik ten Hag.
The winger has been banished from the first-team set-up following a public falling-out with the Man United manager.
Sancho took to social media to hit back at Ten Hag after the Man United manager told reporters that he had been left out of the squad for the defeat to Arsenal earlier this month due to his poor performances in training.
The 22-year-old has subsequently been exiled from the squad, and has now missed games against Brighton & Hove Albion, Bayern Munich and Burnley.
Ten Hag will not consider bringing Sancho back into the fold unless he receives an apology from the former Borussia Dortmund man.

While Sancho has since deleted the controversial social media post, he has refused to apologise to Ten Hag, leaving the situation at an impasse.
According to The Mirror, some of Sancho's Man United teammates have encouraged him to say sorry to the Dutchman.
The report claims that senior players like Marcus Rashford, Luke Shaw and Harry Maguire are among those who have urged Sancho to apologise.
While they are said to have sympathised with Sancho, they disagreed with his decision to publicly go against the Man United boss.

With the Englishman unwilling to apologise to Ten Hag, he is continuing to train with Man United's academy players.
Sancho has also reportedly been barred from using the first-team facilities at Man United's Carrington training base, including the state-of-the-art dining area.
A recent report suggested that the current situation has made Man United consider the possibility of a January departure for Sancho.
The attacker, who arrived from Dortmund in 2021, has scored 12 goals and provided six assists in 82 competitive games for the Red Devils.
Sancho's most recent appearance took place in the 3-2 victory over Nottingham Forest on August 26 when he featured for the final 30 minutes after replacing Anthony Martial.
