Mourinho Axes Nine Players From Current Squad

Manchester United held their latest training session at Carrington today, with several star players in attendance including Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who joined in with the squad for the first time.

There were, however, also some notable absentees. Here’s a rundown of the players who weren’t present today.

1.Bastian Schweinsteiger– The experienced midfielder is still on holiday following his involvement with Germany at Euro 2016,but it reported that he is not wanted by Mourinho for the upcoming season

2.Timothy Fosu-Mensah– The youngster was hugely impressive last season as he made the breakthrough into the first-team.

3.Paddy McNair– The young defender has been linked with a loan move to Celtic, which could explain his absence today.

4.Will Keane– The forward, at the age of 23, is at the stage of his career where he needs to be playing regularly, and it appear that he is attempting to finalise a move elsewhere.

5.Andreas Pereira– The talented young midfielder has been informed by Mourinho that he can leave on loan in order to further his development.

6.Adnan Januzaj– The winger is another player who appears likely to leave United on a temporary basis during this transfer window, and he will be hopeful of faring rather better than he did during a challenging spell with Borussia Dortmund last season.

7.Axel Tuanzebe– A young defender who has impressed for United during pre-season, Tuanzebe wasn’t involved with the first-team today and it appears that he may have been training with the U23s instead.
