Borussia Dortmund trolled Manchester United on Twitter after it confirmed star player Jadon Sancho would not be leaving for Old Trafford this summer.
Sancho, 20, has been heavily linked with a transfer to United in recent months, with the BBC reporting that Dortmund set an August 10 deadline for a move to be agreed.
With that deadline having now passed however, Dortmund's sporting director Michael Zorc issued a statement saying that Sancho will remain in Germany for the coming campaign.
"We plan on having Jadon Sancho in our team this season," Zorc told the club's website on Monday. "The decision is final. I think that answers all our questions.
"Last summer we adjusted Jadon's salary to match the development of his performances. So in context, we had already extended his contract until 2023 back then."
Following Zorc's announcement, the Bundesliga side tweeted a photo of Sancho smiling in training, captioned: "You love to see it."
Sancho joined Dortmund in a $13 million move from Manchester City in 2017, and has since taken the German top flight by storm, scoring 30 goals and producing 38 assists in just 78 matches.
Dortmund, which finished second in the Bundesliga last season, started a pre-season training camp in the Swiss town of Bad Ragaz on Monday.
Lucien Favre's side will face off against Austrian sides SCR Altach on Wednesday and Austria Vienna on Sunday, before returning to Germany ahead of the 2020/21 Bundesliga season, which starts on September 18.
