Manchester United are set to kick off their short post-season tour with a friendly against the ASEAN All-Stars in Kuala Lumpur this Wednesday.
A packed house is expected at the Bukit Jalil National Stadium, which holds 87,500 fans, as the Red Devils return to Malaysia for the first time since their 2009 pre-season campaign. Dubbed the Maybank Challenge Cup, the match is projected to bring in over £7 million for the club, offering a lucrative end to what has been a physically draining year, with 60 matches played across all competitions.
United closed out their Premier League season in solid fashion, sealing a 2-0 win over Aston Villa on Sunday. That result offered some relief following the heartbreak of a Europa League final loss to Tottenham just days earlier.

Manchester United team news
Ruben Amorim has named a strong travelling party for this short Asian swing, featuring several stars who'll be heading off for international duty shortly after.
Bruno Fernandes and Diogo Dalot are both involved before linking up with Portugal, while Manuel Ugarte faces a long haul across the globe to join up with Uruguay. Outgoing Victor Lindelof and Christian Eriksen aren't included in the travelling party, but veteran soon-to-be free-agent Jonny Evans is there on the list.
A notable — and somewhat unexpected — name on the list is Alejandro Garnacho. The winger was left out of the matchday squad on Sunday and had made his frustration clear after being limited to a late cameo in the Europa League final. With speculation swirling around a potential summer move, his inclusion certainly raises eyebrows.
