As Ruben Amorim prepares for his first full season in charge, the Portuguese man will be hoping to make blockbuster signings in his first summer transfer window.
After ending their season with a solid 2-0 win over Aston Villa, United jetted off for their post-season Asia tour.
Amorim, addressing the home fans at full-time on Sunday, told them “the good times are coming,” hinting at major changes ahead.

And just hours after that promise, one of the biggest shake-ups of all is being prepared behind the scenes.
Manchester United are ready to strip Marcus Rashford of the iconic No.10 shirt – and hand it to incoming Brazilian forward Matheus Cunha.
The Red Devils have reached a full agreement with Wolves for Cunha’s signing, activating his £62.5million release clause and offering him a contract until 2030, with the option to extend by a further year.
Matheus Cunha, 25, has enjoyed a stellar season at Molineux, netting 15 goals and providing six assists to help the Midlands club secure Premier League safety.

Despite interest from Arsenal and Nottingham Forest in January, United have won the race for his signature – even though they won’t be in Europe next season.
In a bid to sweeten the deal and show their faith in him as a central figure in Amorim’s rebuild, talkSPORT report that United will give Cunha the coveted No.10 shirt.
Rashford, who’s worn the number since 2018, is reportedly being moved on, with Amorim having already greenlit his loan departure to Aston Villa earlier this year.
Wolves boss Vitor Pereira didn’t deny the links, only saying: “He’s committed with the team, he’s working with happiness… we will see what happens.”
But for Rashford, the writing appears to be on the wall – and for Cunha, a new chapter begins with the most iconic shirt at Old Trafford.
