Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Manchester United are no longer planning to have Christian Eriksen and Lisandro Martinez for their pre-season tour of Asia and Australia.<\/p>\n

The Red Devils initially planned that Martinez and Eriksen, two new signings, would be in Australia to join the rest of the squad.<\/p>\n

While Eriksen joined on a free transfer from Brentford, the Red Devils finally agreed a \u00a346million fee with Ajax on Thursday<\/p>\n

But the Argentina international will no longer be joining the rest of the players, with some paperwork still outstanding.<\/p>\n

Instead, the former Ajax star will report to Carrington once the deal is official, where he will train alongside another new signing, Christian Eriksen.<\/p>\n

Manchester United do not not see any reason to put the duo on a long-haul flight to Australia given that the rest of the squad will be leaving in just over a week\u2019s time, the Metro reports.<\/p>\n
