Experienced defender Jonny Evans has signed a short-term deal to enable him to take part in Manchester United’s upcoming pre-season games in Edinburgh and San Diego.
The Manchester United Academy graduate had been training with the Under-21s whilst considering his options, following his departure from Leicester City at the end of last season.
As part of the Academy training programme, he has also taken part in a number of first-team sessions and impressed Erik ten Hag and the coaching staff.
Evans, who has been capped 102 times by Northern Ireland, will travel to Edinburgh as part of the group to face Lyon on Wednesday.
Jonny will then join up with the Academy group that will travel to San Diego, while the first-team squad are in New York.
The centre-back played 198 games for the Manchester United first team before departing the club in 2015, having won the UEFA Champions League, the FIFA Club World Cup, three Premier League titles and two English League Cups.
