Borussia Dortmund starlet Jadon Sancho has admitted that he has been told to stop nutmegging people in training after his team-mates grew furious at his skillful antics.

Sancho raised eyebrows last summer when he left Manchester City for Dortmund in a deal worth in the region of £10million.

Following a slow start to life in the Bundesliga, the youngster was beginning to break through under manager Peter Stoger before damaging his ankle ligaments.

In an interview with JD Football, Sancho revealed that he had been told off by his colleagues for embarrassing them in training and insists his game has developed since moving to Germany.

'I nutmegged the captains of Dortmund (Marcel Schmelzer) and City (Vincent Kompany) and they said "don't do that again". They don't like it,' he revealed.

'I was always skillful as a youngster but now I don't do skills as much because the game has got quicker and it's more serious.

'Getting my first league call-up was a big opportunity. I just wanted to express myself. I'm more mature now, I know when to release the ball. I'm not greedy but I just want to show what I can do.'

Dortmund are currently without Sancho after the teenage sensation suffered an injury during their win over Cologne in February.

He has made six Bundesliga appearances so far and earned his first assist during the 1-1 draw with Hertha Berlin in January.

His move to Signal Iduna Park came on the back of a successful Under-17 World Cup campaign with England, where he scored three goals in three games before the German giants cut his tournament short with a surprise recall.
