Manchester United officially announced the list of players who will be attending the summer tour in the United States following their victory over Lyon.

 

 

 

 

 

Manchester United won their second friendly match, defeating Lyon 1-0. Donny van de Beek was the game’s only scorer. With a quick entry into the box and a sharp finish, the Dutch midfielder relieved the pressure.

Coach Erik ten Hag’s teachers and students did not return to Manchester after the game. On the contrary, they flew from Scotland to the United States to begin an important summer tour. Coach Ten Hag will conduct the final tests to assemble the squad there.

The Old Trafford team decided to name four players in addition to familiar faces like Casemiro, Bruno Fernandes, and rookie Mason Mount. Fred is one of them.

The Brazilian midfielder has been linked with a move away from Old Trafford this summer. Fulham is thus the club interested in a transfer agreement. Man United stated, “Fred is absent due to personal issues, but is expected to rejoin the rest of the team soon.”

Man United’s move, on the other hand, indicates that they are about to sell the Brazilian midfielder. It should be noted that Fred had just played against Lyon, so the fact that he did not have a name with his teammates when they moved to the United States raised eyebrows.

Alex Telles and Eric Bailly were also left off the Reds’ preliminary roster. When coach Erik ten Hag’s plans change, the Old Trafford team intends to part ways with both players.

Telles, who spent last season on loan at Sevilla, is on the verge of joining Saudi Pro League club Al Nassr in a deal worth £4 million plus add-ons. In the meantime, Bailly is looking for a new club and will not be joining the team.

Tyrell Malacia is the fourth player who is not present.The Dutch defender has yet to travel to the United States and must remain at the Carrington training facility to recover from his injury.

Surprisingly, three players who were rumoured to be leaving Manchester United, Van de Beek, Dean Henderson, and Harry Maguire, were still present.Jonny Evans will leave the group.He still went to the United States, but with the youth team.Evans still has a chance to be retained by Manchester United if he continues to perform well.

Meanwhile, Andre Onana arrived at Manchester United’s headquarters to finalise a £ 47 million transfer from Inter Milan.After completing all paperwork, the Cameroonian custodian, who worked with Ten Hag at Ajax, is expected to return to the United States.

Mason Greenwood, who is currently suspended, cannot be named to this trip until Man Utd has reached a final decision.
