Man United youngster pulls out of pre-season squad touring America in bid to seal loan move to Wigan after impressing in academy ranks

Joe Hugill has pulled out of Manchester United’s squad to tour the US as he prepares to make a loan move to Wigan Athletic.

Erik ten Hag and his players are flying to Los Angeles on Wednesday afternoon for a training camp and three games against Arsenal, Real Betis and Liverpool.

But Hugill, who scored in United’s 2-0 win over Rangers at Murrayfield on Saturday, has stayed behind in Manchester to complete a move to the League One club for the rest of the season.
