Is Manchester United v ASEAN All Stars on TV? Kick-off time, channel and how to watch Malaysia friendly
Ruben Amorim’s side have remained together after Man United’s disastrous season for a series of money-spinning friendlies
Manchester United face off against the ASEAN All Stars in a post-season friendly on Wednesday with Ruben Amorim assessing his squad ahead of a busy summer.
With no European football next term, having lost in the final of the Europa League against Tottenham Hotspur, Amorim will have a clearer schedule.
But after a disastrous season in the Premier League, finishing 15th, the Portuguese will be under pressure to gain momentum quickly in this rebuild, which starts in Malaysia with a friendly.
