In the opening pages of United Review, our matchday programme, the boss reflects on an encouraging pre-season training camp and tour of USA.
With summer signings Matheus Cunha, Diego Leon and Bryan Mbeumo settling into the squad, and a new facility at Carrington now open, clear progress is being made.
Writing in the programme, Ruben looks forward to a fresh start: “Welcome back to Old Trafford for our final pre-season game of the summer before the Premier League resumes next weekend.
“This is such an important time of year, not just to build up towards match fitness, but especially to take advantage of time together, on and off the training pitch, to develop as a group.
