On Sunday, Man Utd will play Arsenal in the Premier League, and their traveling lineup includes some new faces.
Rasmus Hojlund and Sergio Reguilon are included in the Manchester United team for the first time against Arsenal.
On Sunday, United will play their arch rivals Arsenal at the Emirates, and they’ll be hoping to finish the first half of the season strong before the break. Erik ten Hag’s team has struggled in their initial games despite having six points on the board.
A mounting injury list that has several important players out of the picture hasn’t helped matters, but United has at least been given a boost by some new faces going up against the Gunners. Hojlund joined the team on Saturday afternoon as they boarded the train to London for the first time since his £72 million summer transfer from Atalanta.
United has struggled to move forward without a focal point since the striker’s back issue prevented him from playing when he first came at Old Trafford. The Dane is healthy enough to start, according to Ten Hag, and he might play on Sunday.
“Yes, his training week was productive. He’s doing good and responding well, but tomorrow is our final training session, the manager stated. He will therefore be available for the game on Sunday. I believe he is prepared to begin.
similar newcomers Jonny Evans, Reguilon, and Altay Bayindir have also traveled. In contrast to the trio, who arrived on deadline day and were signed in time to play a part in North London, Sofyan Amrabat is a midfielder.
Injuries to Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia led to Reguilon being signed by Tottenham on a season-long loan. To allow Dean Henderson’s departure, goalkeeper Bayindir was acquired for £5 million from Fenerbahce, while Jonny Evans has returned to the team on a one-year contract after playing in preseason.
Although United has not said if Scott McTominay and Jadon Sancho had traveled separately or not at all, they were not seen with the team.
Manchester United travelling squad to face Arsenal:
Goalkeepers: Bayindir, Onana, Vitek
Defenders: Dalot, Evans, Lindelof, Maguire, Martinez, Reguilon, Wan-Bissaka
Midfielders: Casemiro, Eriksen, Hannibal, Fernandes, Gore
Forwards: Antony, Hojlund, Garnacho, Martial, Rashford, Pellistri
