Hojlund, Henderson, Martial - Manchester United injury news and return dates ahead of Wolves opener

After what feels like an eternity, competitive fixtures are set to return to Old Trafford on Monday night when Manchester United kick off the season against Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Erik ten Hag's men returned from their pre-season tour of the US showing signs of what they have worked on this summer. A key component of this was the new sweeper 'keeper role which Andre Onana has taken up.

The Cameroon international is one of three new signings to arrive at United ahead of the big kick off. Mason Mount was the first summer purchase when arriving from Chelsea, while Rasmus Hojlund completed his move from Atalanta last weekend.
