Manchester United have announced their squad for the pre-season tour of the United States - but for the first time in 13 years there isn't a place for Wayne Rooney.

The now former club captain's move to Everton was finally confirmed on Sunday afternoon just moments before United's announcement.

United jetted out to the United States today to begin an 18-day stay which will include friendlies with MLS sides Los Angeles Galaxy and Real Salt Lake, plus matches against Manchester City, Barcelona and Real Madrid in the International Champions Cup.

New signing Victor Lindelof is included after his £31m move from Benfica but there is no place for Romelu Lukaku with his £75m move from Everton yet to be officially confirmed.

The Belgian is likely to be added at a later date and is already in California holidaying with friend and new teammate Paul Pogba. He confirmed early on Sunday that he has completed his medical.

Full squad:

David De Gea, Sergio Romero, Joel Pereira, Antonio Valencia, Matteo Darmian, Timothy Fosu-Mensah, Eric Bailly, Daley Blind, Phil Jones, Chris Smalling, Victor Lindelof, Axel Tuanzebe, Marcos Rojo, Luke Shaw, Demetri Mitchell, Ashley Young, Michael Carrick, Marouane Fellaini, Ander Herrera, Scott McTominay, Paul Pogba, Jesse Lingard, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Juan Mata, Andreas Pereira, Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford
