Manchester United board flight to China

Manchester United board a plane heading for China as they prepare to face Borussia Dortmund and Manchester City as part of their pre-season preparations.

Manchester United are en route to China for their pre-season tour, which will see the Red Devils take on Borussia Dortmund and Manchester City before returning to Europe.

Jose Mourinho's 25-man squad for the trip, which included new signings Eric Bailly and Henrikh Mkhitaryan, was announced on Tuesday morning ahead of their flight in the afternoon.

The trip is now underway as the 20-time English champions continue their build-up to August 14, when they open their Premier League campaign with a trip to Bournemouth.

Wayne Rooney, Marcus Rashford, Chris Smalling, Paddy McNair and David de Gea have also linked up with the squad after taking part in Euro 2016. Man United will take on Dortmund in Shanghai on Friday, before facing rivals Man City three days later in Beijing.
