Jadon Sancho has aimed a dig at Manchester United by saying he's 'come home' to Borussia Dortmund.
The forward has rejoined the Bundesliga giants on loan until the end of the season having struggled during his time at Old Trafford.
Sancho hasn't played since effectively calling Erik ten Hag a liar on social media back in September.
The England international was unhappy after Ten Hag had criticised his performances in training prior to a 3-1 defeat to Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.

Sancho has now gone back to Dortmund, where he experienced the best years of his career.
The German side confirmed his return by saying: "Borussia Dortmund has signed offensive player Jadon Sancho (23) on loan until the end of the season.
"The Englishman, currently at Manchester United, signed a loan contract until June 30, 2024 on Thursday."
And Sancho has now aimed a sly dig at United by saying being back at Dortmund is like 'coming home'.
“When I came into the dressing room today, it felt like 'coming home,'" he said.
"I know the club inside and out, I've always been very close with the fans here, and I've never lost contact with those in charge.
“I can’t wait to see my teammates again, go out on the pitch, play football with a smile on my face, prepare goals, score goals and help qualify for the Champions League."
Sancho will be hoping to rediscover his old form at the Westfalenstadion.
He previously moved to Germany back in 2017 after opting to leave Manchester City in order to secure regular first-team football.
Sancho would go on to become a key player for the side, netting 50 goals and clocking up 64 assists from 137 appearances.
And when he moved to United in 2021, many felt he was destined to be a hit.
However, Sancho's time at Old Trafford has been underwhelming - with the forward regressing to become a shadow of his old self.
He initially believed he'd be United's main player upon joining from Dortmund two-and-a-half years ago.
That didn't happen, however, with Sancho immediately upstaged by the Hollywood homecoming of Cristiano Ronaldo.
The forward was inconsistent under managers Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Ralf Rangnick and Ten Hag.
