But finally he was ready to return to action on Wednesday as his team welcomed Union Berlin to Signal Iduna Park.

Sancho’s big comeback arrived in the 59th-minute with Dortmund already a goal to the good.

Marco Reus had opened the scoring 27 minutes in.

However, it was the Three Lions attacker who quickly stole the show as he pulled off a wonderful nutmeg on Christopher Trimmel.

And the reaction of Trimmel’s team-mates was also priceless as they watched the magic from up close in disbelief.

It was not just tricks that won Sancho praise.

He went on to play a key role in Raphael Guerreiro’s late goal as well that secured the 2-0 win and the three points when launching a counter-attack.

The game also marked a significant milestone for the ace.

It was Sancho’s 100th appearance in the German top-flight.

He arrived at Dortmund from City in 2017 and remains to be linked with a Prem return, with his old club, Man United and Chelsea all believed to be keen on signing him.
