VIDEO: David Beckham calls out players for 'not acting in the right way' as Man Utd icon gives brutal assessment of club's current struggles

There will be no continental football on the agenda for Ruben Amorim’s side next season after finishing 15th in the Premier League and suffering a Europa League final defeat to Tottenham.

While flopping on the field, more unfortunate headlines have been made off it amid a flurry of cost-cutting measures that have been introduced by Sir Jim Ratcliffe at the INEOS co-ownership group. Money is, however, being spent in the summer transfer window.

United are working on deals after completing a post-season tour of the Far East that saw them play friendlies in Malaysia and Hong Kong. More questions were posed there amid disjointed displays and unprofessional behaviour from players.

Amad Diallo was seen flashing his middle finger at fans after coming in for abuse, while Alejandro Garnacho - who is being linked with a move elsewhere - has been accused of pushing a supporter that followed him while filming in Kuala Lumpur.

United legend Beckham is disappointed at what he has seen while watching on from afar, with the ex-England captain - who is now working with Lionel Messi at MLS side Inter Miami - telling CBS Sports: “It's tough times. I don't like seeing some of the things that are going on at the club. On the pitch is what counts but in all honesty I'm seeing a lot of things that are not okay in my eyes as a fan and as a lover of Man United.

“You have to represent the badge. That's what it is about. I've seen a lot of things where players are not acting in the right manner. We were a part of a team that was so well mannered. We understood what it meant to play for Manchester United. We understood what the badge meant.

“Wherever we travelled, whether it was in Europe or in Asia, we respected the fans. We respected the fact that they were turning up, paying money and wanting you to sign and take pictures. You respect that.”

United have wrapped up a deal for Matheus Cunha that will see the Brazilian forward join from Wolves, but more comings and goings are expected as Amorim freshens up an underperforming squad and seeks to restore stability and respect on and off the pitch.
