Manchester United have now officially confirmed their squad for the Premier League season opener against Leeds, MySportDab reports.
Summer signing Jadon Sancho has been included in United squad to face Leeds United today.
The 21-year-old and his other teammates arrived together at The Lowry Hotel on Friday night.
Sancho joined Manchester United in a £72.9m deal from Borussia Dortmund last month but did not play any matches in Pre-season.
The England international did not train early with his new Manchester United teammates.
On Friday, United Coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer confirmed that Sancho could make his debut against Leeds.
“Yes, Jadon will be involved, no doubt,” Solskjaer said.
“He’s done well this week. Unfortunately, he was not feeling good after his holiday and could not train for a few days.
“But he’s now back fully with the group and he has looked more ready than expected, so he’ll definitely be involved. I can’t say he’ll start or not.”
Manchester United and Leeds United played against each other last season without fans but it will be different today.
