PHOTO: Man United prepare for the match against Leeds United with 26 players
Mason Mount is anticipated to make his Manchester United debut on Wednesday against Leeds in the team’s first preseason game of the summer.
For the match in Oslo, Erik ten Hag has chosen a 26-man team that includes his newest £60 million Chelsea addition. The 24-year-old is preparing to board the plane with people like Raphael Varane, Lisandro Martinez, and Jadon Sancho after rehearsing with his new colleagues.
The starting lineup will feature a lot of youthful players, but Bruno Fernandes, Christian Eriksen, and Marcus Rashford won’t play because they had lengthy layoffs after the domestic season ended.
Anthony Martial is missing, but due to injury after failing to shake off his hamstring complaint.
United fans will be able to get another look at the likes of Amad Diallo, who spent part of last season on loan at Sunderland, Hannibal Mejbri, Shola Shoretire and Charlie Savage.
