Ole Gunnar Solskjaer speaks to the media after the ICC game with Inter Milan.

United name travelling squad for AC Milan clash

Friday 02 August 2019 14:15

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has selected his squad for Saturday's game against AC Milan at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff.

The Reds boss is finalising his preparations for the last game of our International Champions Cup campaign, against the Serie A giants, after winning each of our previous five pre-season fixtures. Ole's men have already beaten the Rossoneri's cross-city rivals Inter Milan in the competition. 

United still have an outside chance of winning the trophy but the primary focus is getting more minutes in the tank ahead of the Premier League opener with Chelsea at Old Trafford on 11 August.

Ole has picked a 25-man squad for duty in the Welsh capital, with the only change from the trip to Norway to face Kristiansund being the omission of back-up keeper Joel Pereira.

David De Gea, Sergio Romero and Lee Grant do make the journey, while Chris Smalling and Angel Gomes will hope to be involved after sitting out the 1-0 victory against the manager's hometown club.

TRAVELLING SQUAD

David De Gea, Sergio Romero, Lee Grant; Diogo Dalot, Phil Jones, Victor Lindelof, Marcos Rojo, Luke Shaw, Chris Smalling, Axel Tuanzebe, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Ashley Young; Fred, Angel Gomes, Daniel James, Jesse Lingard, Juan Mata, Nemanja Matic, Scott McTominay, Andreas Pereira, Paul Pogba; Tahith Chong, Mason Greenwood, Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford.

AC Milan look set to hand their latest signing Rafael Leao, the Portuguese striker who arrived from Lille on Thursday, a debut. Three former Liverpool men are in their party - Pepe Reina, Fabio Borini and Suso.

Watch Manchester United take on AC Milan in our final pre-season game this Saturday on MUTV, kick-off 17:30 BST.
