Jadon Sancho and Anthony Martial were both present for the start of Manchester United's pre-season training on Thursday alongside a selection of other first-team players.

The Red Devils officially started their pre-season camp on Thursday morning, with the players not involved for their countries during the recent internationals due back at Carrington.

Sancho and Martial were both pictured arriving at the training ground, in addition to Tom Heaton, Raphael Varane, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Fred.

Meanwhile, the team's players recovering from injury have also been at Carrington over the last week or so, including Dean Henderson, Lisandro Martinez, Donny van de Beek and Antony.

Amad Diallo was also present, with the Ivory Coast international back at Old Trafford following a successful loan spell at Sunderland during the 2022-23 campaign.

The forward is widely expected to play a big part in the team's pre-season schedule, which begins with a clash against now Championship side Leeds United on July 12.

Heaton is currently Man United's only senior goalkeeper available for selection, as Henderson - back at the club following a loan spell at Nottingham Forest - is still recovering from a thigh injury.

David de Gea would have almost certainly been back at Carrington on Thursday had he agreed a new deal, but the Spaniard is currently a free agent, with his contract expiring on June 30.

A host of players, including Harry Maguire, Luke Shaw, Marcus Rashford, Bruno Fernandes, Diogo Dalot, Victor Lindelof, Casemiro, Christian Eriksen, Scott McTominay, Alejandro Garnacho and Tyrell Malacia are not due to return until later this month due to their involvement for their countries in the recent internationals.

Anthony Elanga, Alex Telles and Eric Bailly, who are all being linked with summer exits, are also not due to return to the club until later this month, although it is unlikely that the trio will be at the club heading into next season.

Hannibal Mejbri has also been pictured at Carrington, with the midfielder returning to his parent club following a loan spell at Birmingham City last season.

Man United have a busy pre-season in terms of fixtures, preparing to take on Lyon, Arsenal, Wrexham, Real Madrid, Borussia Dortmund, Lens and Athletic Bilbao.

The Red Devils made their first signing of the summer on Wednesday morning, bringing in England international Mason Mount from Chelsea in a £55m deal.

Erik ten Hag's side are also pressing ahead with a move for Andre Onana, allegedly submitting a second offer for the Inter Milan goalkeeper, having seen their initial bid knocked back. body check tags ::
