| Dortmund’s English midfielder #10 Jadon Sancho celebrates after scoring the opening 1-0 goal during the UEFA Champions League last 16, second-leg football match BVB Borussia Dortmund v PSV Eindhoven at the Signal Iduna stadium in Dortmund, western Germany on March 13, 2024. |
Week one of pre-season training continues apace at Carrington, as Erik ten Hag prepares his Manchester United squad for a new season.
A group of senior players including the likes of Andre Onana, Casemiro, Mason Mount and Marcus Rashford all returned to base on Monday, ready to get to work.
Jadon Sancho returned for testing on Wednesday following his loan spell at Borussia Dortmund during the second half of last season. The 24-year-old forward then trained with the group on Thursday.
With several players still competing at Euro 2024 and Copa America – or on leave after playing at those tournaments – the group has been bolstered by Academy players. That includes Toby Collyer, who signed a new contract on Thursday.
Jonny Evans is also back at Carrington after the Academy graduate signed a one-year contract.
A £50-million redevelopment project at Carrington means the players are using different facilities this season, as work gets under way to modernise the usual building on site.
REFRESHED COACHING STAFF
In case you missed it, United has appointed Rene Hake and former striker Ruud van Nistelrooy as assistant managers of the men’s first team, to work under Erik until June 2026.
“I am delighted that Rene and Ruud have agreed to join our project, adding a wealth of experience, knowledge and new energy to the staff,” said the manager.
“Now is a good time to refresh the coaching team as we look to build on the achievements of the past two years and push to the next level.”
