In a surprising step, Manchester United decided to postpone the joining of five of its stars in pre -season training, to give them additional time to explore the opportunities to move to new clubs during the summer transfer period, amid strong indicators of their departure from Old Trafford.

Conditional flexibility from the club
Despite the postponement, the club confirmed that the five players can still use medical and physical facilities in Carrington if they wish, while maintaining the door open to their return to the team, in the event that their negotiations are not successful with interested clubs.
Differences and tensions
This decision comes against the background of an official request from the players to leave, according to the newspaper “Daily Mail”, as they expressed their desire to search for new challenges, especially after a season that witnessed a decline in the levels of some, and tension in the relationship with the technical staff led by Robin Amorim.
Rashford towards the exit

Anthony and Beetis .. a successful experience
