Mason Mount could make his first appearance for Man United TOMORROW

Mason Mount is set to make his Manchester United debut in Oslo on Wednesday when Erik ten Hag’s side play their first pre-season friendly against Leeds at the Ullevaal Stadion.

Mount completed his £60million move from Chelsea last week but has not played since April due to a pelvic problem that required surgery.

Lisandro Martinez also missed the last 12 games of last season due to a fractured metatarsal sustained in April, but the Argentina defender was included in the 26-man squad that flew to Norway on Tuesday.

Raphael Varane, Jadon Sancho, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Fred have all travelled, although Anthony Martial and Donny van de Beek stayed behind at Carrington to continue individual training programmes as they recover from injury.

Tom Heaton is expected to replace David de Gea in goal against relegated Leeds after the Spanish keeper confirmed at the weekend that he has left Old Trafford after 12 years.

United are continuing negotiations with Inter Milan over signing Andre Onana as their new No.1, with Ten Hag keen to finalise a deal for the Cameroon keeper before the club leave on tour to the US next week.

Mount has been making himself at home with the squad after completing his £60m transfer

United’s clash with Daniel Farke’s side sets off a pre-season calendar that sees them face Lyon in Scotland next week before a tour of the US, where they will meet Arsenal, Wrexham, Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund. 

Ten Hag’s men finish off their preparations with a home game against Lens on August 5 ahead of a clash with Athletic Bilbao in Dublin a day later.

United fans will be desperate to get their first glimpse of their only signing of this window so far, having anticipated further arrivals at this stage.

Nevertheless, the addition of Mount, a marquee talent poached from a rival, has supporters excited with many pondering how he will be used by last season’s League Cup winners.

After joining the club last week, Mount said: ‘It’s never easy leaving the club where you grew up, but Manchester United will provide an exciting new challenge for the next phase of my career.

‘Everyone can see that the club has made big steps forward under Erik ten Hag. Having met with the manager and discussed his plans, I couldn’t be more excited for the seasons ahead, and am ready for the hard work expected here.’
