Manchester United stars Juan Mata, Marcus Rashford and Ander Herrera stop to sign autographs for delighted fans outside their training ground

  • Manchester United players were arriving for training at the club's Aon complex
  • United top the Premier League on goal difference after their first two games
  • Jose Mourinho's men face Leicester at Old Trafford in Saturday's late kick-off

Manchester United players drove into training on Wednesday as the Red Devils look to maintain their blistering start to the season. 

Some of the United stars arriving at the club's Aon Complex were pictured posing with fans who had waited outside the facility to offer them a warm welcome.

Local lads Marcus Rashford and Jesse Lingard were snapped taking the time to sign shirts and pose for photos with supporters as they drove in.

And Spanish duo Ander Herrera and Juan Mata were also seen smiling from their cars as they met United supporters.


Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Nemanja Matic, Marcos Rojo and Sergio Romero were among those spotted driving into the base as United prepare for their latest test - against Leicester at Old Trafford on Saturday. 

Matic is one of three major signings United have made this summer transfer window along with Romelu Lukaku and Victor Lindelof.

Lukaku has settled in quickly at United with three goals in his first two league matches while Lindelof is still awaiting his Premier League bow - though the Swedish defender did play in the European Super Cup loss to Real Madrid. 

Another player who could be set to join United's squad is Zlatan Ibrahimovic as the 35-year-old continues his remarkable recovery from suffering a cruciate ligament injury in April. 

Ibrahimovic was released by United at the end of the season but could be set for a sensational return to Old Trafford - by signing a reduced one-year contract.

Jose Mourinho could find it a tough task fitting Ibrahimovic into United's team though, with fellow strikers Rashford, Lukaku and Anthony Martial all competing for positions in United's attack.

Mourinho's current squad have started the league season with two 4-0 victories - blowing away West Ham at home and Swansea away.

The results mean United top the Premier League table on goal difference after just two matches - Burnley and Huddersfield also have a 100 per cent record.
