Ruben Amorim's United Era Begins in Earnest

After a turbulent 2024–25 season—United finished 15th in the Premier League and ended the campaign without silverware—new manager Ruben Amorim faces immediate pressure to deliver results and restore pride. The Portuguese coach has named a 29-man travelling squad for his first official outing, including summer signings Matheus Cunha and Diego Leon, who could make their unofficial debuts for the club.

Key absentees include Andre Onana and Joshua Zirkzee, both left at Carrington to recover from minor injuries. Several senior names—Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, Antony, Alejandro Garnacho, Tyrell Malacia, and Lisandro Martinez—are also omitted, many reportedly set for summer departures amid a squad overhaul.

Amorim’s new-look side will don United’s newly unveiled adidas away kit for the occasion.

Leeds United: Back in the Big Time

For Leeds United, the clash marks the first test of their pre-season following triumphant promotion back to the Premier League under Daniel Farke. Leeds finished atop the Championship with 100 points last term and have been active early in the summer market, bringing in Gabriel Gudmundsson, Jaka Bijol, Sebastiaan Bornauw, and Lukas Nmecha. Saturday's game in Sweden will likely hand supporters their first look at these new recruits in action.

With momentum and optimism on their side, Leeds are keen to build chemistry and assess their readiness for a return to England’s top flight.

Meetings between these historic northern clubs are known for excitement, 26 goals having been scored in their last six league encounters. United enter the fixture unbeaten in their last seven matches against Leeds. The previous summer friendly between the sides, held in Oslo in 2023, ended 2–0 in United’s favour.
