MANCHESTER UNITED staff were reportedly forced to cancel a trip to watch baseball.

That’s after Erik ten Hag summoned his players and backroom members to a last-minute team dinner.

The Red Devils are on a pre-season tour of the United States.

And the Mirror claims some staff members planned on capping their time by watching the San Diego Padres baseball team in action on Friday night.

However, the evening was cancelled when Ten Hag called an impromptu team dinner, which required all club staff to attend.

The Dutchman has been insisting that everyone on tour eats meals together, including those behind the scenes.

But a lucky few managed to get away later on to catch the end of the Padres’ 7-1 win over the Texas Rangers.

United will now jet from the southern Californian city to Las Vegas, where they will play Borussia Dortmund on Monday.

And Ten Hag will be hoping to welcome Rasmus Hojlund to his group after striking a £72million deal for the Atalanta striker.

Hojlund is set to sign a five-year deal at Old Trafford after his Italian club accepted an initial £64m offer, with a further £8m in add-ons.

The Denmark international netted nine times in Serie A last term.

And he will become United’s third major signing of the summer after Mason Mount and Andre Onana.

Ten Hag could yet add a fourth new face, with Fiorentina’s Sofyan Amrabat high on his wishlist.
