18 youngsters in full Manchester United squad to face Leeds (pre-season)

Mason Mount has been included in Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United squad to face Leeds United in Oslo on Wednesday.

Erik ten Hag will lead his team out for the first time since Manchester United‘s 2023 FA Cup defeat to Manchester City as he embarks on an 8-fixture pre-season tour.

The squad involves 18 youth team players as Ten Hag waits for the rest of his first-team squad to return from their extended holidays that resulted from the post-season international break in June.
