United side named for final post-season friendly

United side named for final post-season friendly

Head coach Ruben Amorim has selected his final line-up of 2024/25, as Manchester United face Hong Kong, China in our second post-season friendly.

The game kicks off at 13:00 BST and is being shown live on MUTV.

After the 1-0 loss to ASEAN All-Stars in Malaysia, the Reds will want to put on more of a show before signing off on a disappointing campaign, and an interesting XI has been chosen by the boss.

Experienced senior members of the squad, Tom Heaton and Jonny Evans, both start, with the latter flanked by youngsters Godwill Kukonki and Tyler Fredricson in the three-man defence. The match is likely to be a sentimental occasion for Evans, as the popular centre-back makes his farewell appearance for the club.

Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro provide their top quality guile in midfield, again alongside youth in the shape of Jaydan Kamason and Harry Amass, who will be operating as wing-backs.

Shea Lacey, the exciting Under-18s talent, is handed a chance to impress, with Alejandro Garnacho also selected, in support of centre-forward Rasmus Hojlund.

United: Heaton; Kukonki, Evans, Fredricson; Kamason, Casemiro, Fernandes (c), Amass; Garnacho, Lacey; Hojlund.

Substitutes: Bayindir; Armer, Dorgu, Heaven, Munro, Kone, Collyer, T. Fletcher, Mainoo, Moorhouse, Mount, Thwaites, Ugarte, Amad, Obi.
