The Daily Telegraph pointed out that Manchester United hopes Mbeumo's trade will make a breakthrough this week, and Amorin may look for a central defender in addition to center and midfield.

Manchester United's current focus is to finalize Mbeumo's deal, and they hope to make a breakthrough this week. Later, Amorin also plans to introduce a forward and midfielder. In addition, due to Lindelof leaving the team, Evans retired, Lisandro Martinez and Shaw were easily injured, Amorin may also look for a central defender.

Summer signings Cunya and Diego Leon were among the players who returned to Carrington base on Monday for preseason training.

Rashford, Garnacho, Sancho, Anthony and Maracia did not show up as Amorin asked them not to go to the training ground for the time being so they could explore potential transfer opportunities this summer.

Rashford trained with his personal trainer during his three-week vacation in Marbella and is now stepping up his pre-season training in Manchester. Anthony performed similar training in St. Paul. Rashford recently changed his social media avatar to show the dynamics of his hard work in training to stay healthy. Barcelona showed interest in the player, but prefers loan. Bayern Munich is also associated with him.

Amorin's team will play their first friendly match against Leeds United in Stockholm on July 19, and will fly to the United States three days later to start their pre-season tour. Manchester United will compete in the Premier League Summer Series, against West Ham United, Bournemouth and Everton.
