Manchester United hope to have as many new signings in place as possible when they kickstart their pre-season schedule in July. United are due to report to their Carrington training base from Monday 7 July before they face Leeds United in their first summer friendly on Saturday 19 July.
United then face West Ham, Bournemouth and Everton in the Premier League Summer Series, with a final home friendly against Fiorentina ahead of the new Premier League campaign. Matheus Cunha will be a star attraction during the summer schedule, though United remain confident Bryan Mbeumo will also be signed in time to feature in the early stages of their pre-season plans.
Ruben Amorim is expected to use a large squad during the summer as he looks to cast his eye over as many players as possible and hit the ground running in the new campaign. Here is what their dream line up could look like vs Leeds United.
