Manchester United have submitted their 25-man Premier League squad \u2013 with a few somewhat surprising inclusions.<\/p>\n
Manchester United news, exclusives and analysis<\/p>\n
All Premier Leagues had to name their squads on Wednesday, though only players over the age of 21 have to be included.<\/p>\n
That means the likes of Alejandro Garnacho and new signing Rasmus Hojlund are not on the list but are still eligible to play.<\/p>\n
The six other summer additions \u2013 Mason Mount,\u00a0Andre Onana,\u00a0Altay Bayindir,\u00a0Jonny Evans,\u00a0Sofyan Amrabat\u00a0and\u00a0Sergio Reguilon are as expected included.<\/p>\n
However, a trio of stars currently on the fringes of Erik ten Hag\u2019s side have made the cut, namely Jadon Sancho, Antony and Donny van de Beek.<\/p>\n
Antony has been given a leave of absence from Old Trafford as he contests allegations of domestic abuse against him, but his selection perhaps suggests that United feel the matter will be resolved soon.<\/p>\n
Van de Beek meanwhile is a player that most will have forgotten is still with the Red Devils, as the midfielder was largely expected to leave over the summer after three terrible years at the club.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Dutchman was linked with a whole host of clubs across Europe, including Real Sociedad, but ultimately United were unable to shift him despite being willing to listen to \u2018any offers\u2019 for the flop.<\/p>\n
But most eye-catching of all is the inclusion of Jadon Sancho, whose future in Manchester is very uncertain following his public war of words with Ten Hag.<\/p>\n
