Man Utd announce 26-man squad for Leeds friendly with keeper crisis and fans confused over four big name omissions
MANCHESTER UNITED have named their squad for a pre-season friendly against Leeds.
The Red Devils meet the recently relegated side tomorrow in Norway.
Erik ten Hag has picked 26 players for the clash with plenty of young stars set to get a chance to impress.
But there has been some confusion with Antony, Donny van de Beek, Anthony Martial and Dean Henderson not involved.
Antony was seen training just last week as was Henderson and Van de Beek, who both may not be fit enough to play yet as they battle back from long-term injuries.
Martial was also spotted at Carrington just days ago.
The likes of Alvaro Fernandez and Amad Diallo could get a chance to impress after successful loan spells away at Preston and Sunderland respectively.
Under-18 trio Isak Hansen-Aaroen, Maxi Oyedele and Charlie Savage have all been training with the first-team and have been included.
Mason Mount is also in line for his first Man Utd appearance following his move from Chelsea.
Lisandro Martinez returns from injury and Jadon Sancho, Raphael Varane, Fred and Aaron Wan-Bissaka attempt to build-up fitness.
