The 15 Manchester United players set for extra work after poor start to the season

Manchester United sit 12th in the Premier League following a disappointing run of form under manager Michael Carrick. After losing to Manchester City, exiting the Carabao Cup, and drawing with Fulham, the squad faces a three-week international break. Multiple first-team players will remain at the Carrington training complex rather than reporting for international duty.

Karl Darlow, Kobbie Mainoo, Marcus Rashford, and Benjamin Sesko withdrew from their national teams due to fitness concerns. Additionally, England manager Thomas Tuchel overlooked Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw, while Brazil manager Carlo Ancelotti omitted Matheus Cunha. Matthijs de Ligt, Manuel Ugarte, and Carlos Baleba also continue their injury rehabilitation in Manchester.
