Coach Amorim affirmed that he only wants to work with players who are full of passion and dedication, ready to sacrifice for the red shirt.

A source from inside MU said: "Amorim is asserting his power at the club. Now he has the opportunity to shape the team according to his wishes. Ruben Amorim only needs players who live and die for the red shirt and always support his ideas. He also eliminates rotten apples or individuals who show signs of negligence."

MU's tour of the US will begin on July 26. Here, the Red Devils will play friendly matches with Bournemouth and Everton.
