Man United touch down in New York, flying straight from Scotland for next step of their pre-season, after ditching Jonny Evans, 35, to the academy squad... while Fred stays back with a 'personal issue'

Manchester United's squad have arrived in New York for their pre-season tour of the US.

The Red Devils picked up a 1-0 friendly win against Lyon in Edinburgh on Wednesday, as forgotten man Donny van de Beek secured victory with a well-taken second-half volley, while Jonny Evans made his second debut for the club after signing a short-term deal.

The players then headed straight to Edinburgh to catch a flight over to the US where they are set to play four pre-season games before the end of the month, but Evans was not present after being moved over to the academy squad.
