Life takes many unexpected turns, as this example proves it.

Life takes many unexpected turns, especially in the world of sports, and football is no exception. There have been numerous cases of signings that didn't live up to expectations and, ultimately, led to players being separated from their respective teams. From that point on, for many, their careers are never the same.

One of the most high-profile cases is that of Eden Hazard. At one point, Real Madrid paid substantial sums of money for the talented Belgian forward. However, Hazard never managed to shine in the white jersey, and he went from being one of the world's best footballers to, according to many fans, one of the worst signings in the history of the Spanish club.

But Eden Hazard is not the only one who has faced this situation. Jadon Sancho's case is similar. The 23-year-old winger arrived at Manchester United from BVB Dortmund for an approximate fee of $90 million. His strong connection to his home country seemed to be a key factor in making this transfer a success.

Nevertheless, today, Sancho has been separated by the team due to differences with manager Erik ten Hag. In an official statement, United announced: "Jadon Sancho will remain in a personal training program away from the first-team group, pending the resolution of a disciplinary issue within the squad."

A few weeks ago, the Dutch coach stated that Jadon Sancho would not be included in the squad for the match against Arsenal due to his poor performance in training. The player responded through his social media, stating that not everything reported in the press should be believed. Since then, the relationship between the player and the club may have deteriorated significantly.

Jadon's highest value

As for the maximum cost of Jadon at one point, according to Transfermarkt, his highest market value reached nearly $140 million. Discipline issues and a drop in performance have led this young talent into a challenging situation in his career.
