The 10 Man United players Ruben Amorim used as details of first Carrington session emerge

Ruben Amorim took charge of his first Manchester United training session on Monday. The 39-year-old started work as the new United head coach last week following his arrival from Sporting CP, but had to wait seven days before getting started on the training field due to work permit issues.

But now, Amorim has been able to see some of his United squad on the grass for the first time. Although a number of his players remain away on international duty - including the likes of Rasmus Hojlund, Alejandro Garnacho and Manuel Ugarte - he was still able to get a strong group together at Carrington.

Leny Yoro, signed from Lille for £52million in the summer, was among those spotted in training as he continues to build back up to fitness. Mason Mount made his return to action against PAOK earlier this month and he was involved, as was Kobbie Mainoo, who hasn't featured since picking up an injury in early October.

Amad Diallo took part despite withdrawing from international duty with Ivory Coast, while Jonny Evans, Casemiro, Antony, Tom Heaton, Tyrell Malacia and Luke Shaw were the other first-teamers out on the training field. In total, there were just 10 senior players out there for Amorim's first session.

Also part of the squad training in Amorim's first session was 16-year-old Godwill Kukonki. It's the first time the teenager, who is a left-footed defender, has joined first-team training but is a regular starter at centre-back for the Under 18s. Kukonki has scored one goal and added two assists in nine matches for the U18s this season.

Explaining why he joined United in his first interview, Amorim told the club website:
