Jadon Sancho, currently on loan with a German team, did not attract attention in the UK, where another player, the Austrian, made headlines. The Austrian contributed crucial assists for Ian Maatsen and Niclas Fullkrug, and then scored a fourth goal in impressive fashion. This helped the team secure a 5-4 victory on aggregate, after losing 2-1 in Madrid the week before. In addition, there was a comment about Sabitzer’s performance, noting that he had previously scored for Manchester United.
This statement pointed out the frustration over the missed opportunity to sign Sabitzer, and the possible impact on another player, Kobbie Mainoo. Despite this, fans were left in awe at the player who got away, lamenting the oversight in the team’s decision-making.
