Manchester United have named their 25-man Champions League squad for the group stage – but have left out \u00a340million flop Donny van de Beek.<\/p>\n
The competition will get underway later this month, with United drawn alongside fellow giants Bayern Munich as well as Copenhagen and Galatasaray.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Summer arrivals Rasmus Hojlund, Andre Onana, Sergio Reguilon, Sofyan Amrabat and Altay Bayindir have all made the cut along with the bulk of the first-team crop.<\/p>\n
Mason Mount, meanwhile, is on the association-trained list with Harry Maguire, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Jadon Sancho, despite the latter’s future being unclear.<\/p>\n
Jonny Evans, who has signed on for the season as a back-up centre back eight years after bringing an end to his lengthy first spell, features on the club-trained list.<\/p>\n

Erik ten Hag left a big name out of Manchester United’s 25-man Champions League squad<\/p>\n

Donny van de Beek has failed to make the cut and could still leave the club this summer<\/p>\n

Van de Beek is said to have refused to hold talks with them earlier in the window.<\/p>\n Nevertheless, despite this United are still actively working to offload him.<\/p>\n The Turkish window may represent an escape and, as reported by Mail Sport<\/span>, Galatasaray are interested. Negotiations are understood to be ongoing.<\/p>\n Should Galatasaray wish to sign Van de Beek, they will have until September 15 to seal the deal, with their deadline scheduled over two weeks later than England’s.<\/p>\n Van de Beek’s time at United has been blighted by an array of injuries, an unsuccessful loan switch to Everton and a failure to impress each of his managers.<\/p>\n Even Erik ten Hag, who worked with Van de Beek at Ajax, failed to inspire him toward a turnaround in form, with numerous other midfield options preferred over him.<\/p>\n United will also submit a B List of players prior to each Champions League fixture. This group will include the likes of Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo.\u00a0<\/p>\n It’s All Kicking Off is an exciting new podcast from Mail Sport that promises a different take on Premier League football.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n It is available on MailOnline, Mail+, YouTube, Apple Music and Spotify.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n Man United announce their 25-man Champions League squad ahead of the group stage but \u00a340m flop is LEFT OUT and could still leave the club […]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":287650,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"\nIT’S ALL KICKING OFF!\u00a0<\/h3>\n
