Jadon Sancho returned to Dortmund on loan in January after struggling at Old Trafford following a big-money move in 2021. He had been frozen out of the first team following a public falling-out with United head coach Erik ten Hag.
He has been linked with a permanent transfer to Dortmund but sporting director Sebastian Kehl denied the rumours and said he was unlikely to stay in Germany.
The 23-year-old has been a regular starter under coach Edin Terzic since his return to Dortmund, but the Englishman remains a long way short of the scintillating form he showed as he amassed 50 goals and 64 assists in 137 games in his first four-year spell in Dortmund.
"I had a feeling this week that I was going to score. I stayed positive, even if my performance didn't always show it and I've disappointed some people a bit in recent weeks," Sancho said.
"I'm not entirely satisfied with the game in Bremen either; I could've played better and contributed more. But we got the three points; that's the most important thing," he added.
