Man Utd expect multiple loan departures to come
Manchester United's US tour squad has sharpened the minds of a few younger players when it comes to assessing options for next season. Left-back Harry Amass was omitted so he could secure a loan move and a number of options have already opened up. Midfielder Jack Moorhouse - who like Amass went on United's post-season tour of Malaysia and Hong Kong - is likely to go on loan to Leyton Orient in League One. After his spell at Doncaster Rovers last season, 20-year-old wide player Ethan Ennis is looking at another temporary move. And Ethan Wheatley, fresh from his goalscoring contribution to England Under-19s' European Championship campaign is another likely to be moving out, at least in the short term. Goalkeeper Radek Vitek, a surprising omission from the US tour party, is also lined up for a loan deal. For the latter two in particular, it will be interesting to see if United look at a permanent transfer given the Profit and Sustainability Rules benefit that would come from it.

Man Utd new boy Leon catches the eye in Leeds stalemate
Whisper it quietly but Manchester United may have found a little gem in young full-back Diego Leon. The club had already made some pretty significant decisions around the 18-year-old which indicated the recruitment department believe he has a prominent Old Trafford future, even before they opened their pre-season campaign with a 0-0 draw against newly-promoted Leeds. For a start, they invested to bring the Paraguay Under-20 international over from South America. Then they have given him a prized first-team shirt – number 30 – and thirdly, they have decided to let highly-rated English youngster Harry Amass leave the club on loan rather than let him compete with Leon for what is presumed to be the back-up left wing-back slot. Head coach Ruben Amorim opted to start the 18-year-old in Saturday's opening pre-season game against Leeds in Stockholm, with Matheus Cunha - a summer signing from Wolves - also appearing in a Manchester United shirt for the first time. And there were little signs that, with the right work ethic, a willingness to listen and enough motivation, Leon could be a very useful asset. The highlight came at the back end of the first half. A short pass to Chido Obi inside the penalty area was delivered with a delicate touch you would not normally expect of someone Leon's size. Goodness knows what he was like as a schoolboy in South America but he is already a solid unit. That might bring its own problems as he gets accustomed to the intensity of the Premier League and, even in this encounter, played in pleasant conditions despite the sun and mid-afternoon kick-off, Leon seemed to be catching his breath on a couple of occasions. Initially, he was caught out by overlapping runs from Willy Gnonto and Jayden Bogle. But he quickly worked out when danger might present itself and, with a bit of coaching from Luke Shaw, who was playing inside him as the left-sided central defender, he was not exposed in the same manner again. After Casemiro's deflected shot had bounced back off the top of the crossbar, Leon was confident enough to try and convert the rebound even though the angle was virtually impossible. It was no surprise he failed but the attitude bodes well for the future. Along with the rest of Amorim's starting line-up, the teenager was replaced at half-time in readiness for the three-match trip to the United States to play in the Premier League Summer Series. Barcelona open talks over Rashford deal Leeds agree £17m deal for Germany midfielder Stach Mbeumo 'proven quality' - but Man Utd still have striker dilemma Heaton and Meslier ensure goalless game Having praised one of the youngest players in United's squad, they had the oldest to thank for keeping Leeds out. Veteran goalkeeper Tom Heaton signed a one-year contract extension three weeks ago and, with Andre Onana injured, the 39-year-old is pushing Altay Bayindir for the interim first-choice role. And he caught the eye with three excellent second-half saves. Largie Ramazani was denied twice but the best was the first after Joel Piroe had set up Bogle. Interestingly for Leeds, while striker Patrick Bamford did not make the trip – and no explanation was offered before kick-off – Jack Harrison, who has spent the last two season on loan at Everton and is expected to move again, started. Jaka Bijol and Lukas Nmecha were also given first starts by boss Daniel Farke, while fellow new signings Gabriel Gudmundsson, Sean Longstaff and Sebastiaan Bornauw came on after half-time - with actor Will Ferrell, an investor in Leeds, watching on from the stands. As news filtered through of Leeds having a £17m bid accepted by German club Hoffenheim for their midfielder Anton Stach, it is clear Farke, like Amorim, can expect plenty of improvement from his side before their return to the top flight against Everton on 18 August. Manchester United finished on top. Illan Meslier got down low to deny Patrick Dorgu and amid a frenetic ending Kobbie Mainoo hit the bar before the Leeds goalkeeper denied Ayden Heaven.
