Manchester United is set to continue its pre-season schedule with a friendly match against Rosenborg in Norway. This fixture follows Manchester United‘s previous outing, where they faced Wrexham.
For the match against Wrexham, Manchester United‘s squad included an inexperienced lineup of youth players for the second 45 minutes. Several players, including Bruno Fernandes, Amad Diallo, and Senne Lammens, were not available as they were still on vacation after their involvement in the World Cup and their time in North America.
Squad Information
Fans can anticipate seeing new signings such as Andrey Santos, along with players like Bryan Mbeumo, Leny Yoro, and Joshua Zirkzee, in the upcoming friendly. Michael Carrick is heading into his first full season in charge of the team.
The Rosenborg lineup for the match is managed by Freyr Alexandersson and is expected to use a 4-3-3 formation.
