Manchester United team news

Manchester United arrive Stateside after a disappointing 15th-place Premier League finish and no European football, adding urgency for improvement under Amorim. The squad has been bolstered by the arrivals of Bryan Mbeumo (from Brentford), Matheus Cunha, and Diego Leon - all of whom could feature after appearing in the opening friendly draw with Leeds.

Marcus Rashford is unavailable, having moved on loan to Barcelona, and Lisandro Martinez is travelling but not expected to feature as he recovers from knee surgery. Joshua Zirkzee and keeper Andre Onana missed the Leeds match through injury but are included in the squad. Harry Maguire rejoined the group after a personal matter and could play.

West Ham team news

West Ham, under Graham Potter, are in better spirits after a 3-1 friendly win over Grasshoppers and finished just one point above United in the league last season.

Mohammad Kudus has left for Spurs, leaving a creative void up front. Striker Nicolas Fullkrug is fit despite prior injury worries, but a move for Callum Wilson as backup is not completed in time. Midfielder George Earthy is out with ankle ligament damage, and Crysencio Summerville continues rehab from a hamstring issue and is not expected to be risked.
