Ruben Amorim names 32-man squad for pre-season tour with 5 Man Utd stars brutally axed

Manchester United have announced a 32-man squad for their upcoming tour of USA - and there's no place for any of the five stars who Ruben Amorim wants rid of. Marcus Rashford - who's in Barcelona to finalise a loan move - Alejandro Garnacho, Jadon Sancho, Antony and Tyrell Malacia have all been left at home.

The headline inclusion is new signing Bryan Mbeumo, who finally completed a £71million transfer from Brentford on Monday. Also included is Matheus Cunha, United's other only signing of the summer after costing £62.5m from Wolves.

Goalkeeper Andre Onana is also on the plane, as he steps up his recovery from a hamstring injury which he sustained in the first week of pre-season training. Mirror Football reported last week that United are hoping to welcome Onana, 29, back for their third and final friendly in the USA against Everton.

A number of youngsters have been named in Amorim's squad including goalkeepers Dermot Mee and Will Murdock, defenders Tyler Fredricson and Ayden Heaven, midfielders Toby Collyer, Jack Fletcher and Sekou Kone, and forwards Bendito Mantato, Chido Obi and Ethan Williams.

The Red Devils began their pre-season campaign with an uninspiring 0-0 draw against newly-promoted Leeds in Stockholm on Saturday. Cunha made his debut alongside new left wing-back Diego Leon.

United's first game is against West Ham and will be played at midnight UK time on Saturday at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, where next year's World Cup final will be held. Amorim's men will then take on Bournemouth at 2:30am next Thursday, July 31 in Chicago.

Finally, the Red Devils are scheduled to play Everton at 10pm on Saturday, August 3 in Atlanta. Their run of friendlies ends with Fiorentina at Old Trafford a week later.
