All is fine now – Harry Maguire joining Man Utd tour after personal matter
The PA news agency understands Maguire remained at home due to a personal matter and the player has now confirmed he will only be a day late joining up with Ruben Amorim's men Stateside.
'All is fine now,' Maguire posted on an Instagram story. 'I will be travelling tomorrow to meet up with the squad. Thanks for your concern.'
Alejandro Garnacho, Antony, Jadon Sancho and Tyrell Malacia have unsurprisingly joined Barcelona-bound Marcus Rashford in being omitted from the travelling party heading for Chicago.
The five are searching for new clubs and have been training away from Ruben Amorim's first-team squad since indicating that they wish to explore a future away from Old Trafford.
Bryan Mbeumo is part of the group after completing his move from Brentford on Monday for a fee rising to a potential £71million.
Fellow summer arrivals Matheus Cunha, whose partner recently gave birth, and Diego Leon are also on the plane.

Scotland international midfielder Ryan Gauld looks set to welcome a new superstar teammate to Vancouver Whitecaps this summer with the MLS outfit 'nearing an agreement' with Bayern Munich icon Thomas Muller. The World Cup winning forward is out of contract after ending a glittering 17-year spell with Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich last month, leaving the Allianz Arena having won 13 league titles, and two Champions League titles alongside a host of other honours. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Muller, who also won the World Cup with Germany in 2014 and was named the tournament's Golden Boot winner in 2010, has been linked with moves to Fiorentina, FC Dallas and Galatasaray this summer, but it looks like the Canadian outfit have won the race for his signature. Thomas Muller enters Celtic Park during last season's Champions League last 16 play off tie between Celtic and Bayern Munich. | SNS Group The 35-year-old will link up with 10-cap Scotland international Gauld at the Canadian club if the move is rubber stamped, with the ex-Dundee United academy product, once dubbed 'the Scottish Lionel Messi', a regular in the Whitecaps midfield since his move to BC Place in 2021. According to GiveMeSport journalist Ben Jacobs, the Bavaria-born star's move to the MLS is 'not 100% done', but is nearing completion, with 'only the final details' remaining on a deal that would see him sign for the 'Caps this summer. Over the weekend, it was revealed that the former Germany international had rejected a move to LAFC, and has began discussions with the Canadian club, who are now in the process of negotiating a way to acquire the 'pre-emptive rights' to Muller from FC Cincinnati. As per common practice in the MLS, each club can claim up to seven players per season through 'right of discovery', which means only the team with the resulting transfer rights is then allowed to negotiate with the player. In regards to Muller, it was FC Cincinnati who held the rights to him, meaning if other MLS clubs want to sign him, they must purchase the rights from whoever has them. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad It is believed that Cincinnati are asking for a fee of around $400,000, which is a similar fee to what Charlotte FC received for ex-Borussia Dortmund winger's Marco Reus's rights when he transferred to LA Galaxy last summer. Should the deal be completed, he would become a TAM (Targeted Allocation Money) signing for 2025, and a DP (Designated Player) signing for 2026.

On Sunday, January 19 – two days before his 18th birthday – Littler showed off the Sid Waddell Trophy to Red Devils fans at half-time of the 3-1 Prem loss to Brighton. And following his latest triumph, secured at the Winter Gardens in Blackpool, club insiders would welcome him doing the same again with this pot of silverware, which is a dead ringer for football's FA Cup.

READ MORE DARTS NEWS LUKE WHO'S SECOND Why Littler is still not world No1 despite winning Triple Crown No official conversation has been had yet between the two parties but Littler has close links to the hierarchy. SunSport understands they are open to talks and say he is always welcome given his love and loyalty towards United, who are managed by Ruben Amorim. On his first VIP visit in January 2024, he met up with Ferguson, 83, and posed for photos. That same month, he coached shot-shy United stars how to hit the target as he took part in a nine-darts challenge at the Carrington training HQ with Harry Maguire and Christian Eriksen.

'As a player yeah but...' - Luke Littler forces Roy Keane to agree on Bruno Fernandes but Man Utd legend still makes dig But he will then have time off until the World Series of Darts Finals in Amsterdam on September 12-14. Meanwhile, Littler – midway through his second year as a pro – was asked after his win over Wade which of the three top trophies was his preference. It is nearly seven months since he beat Michael van Gerwen at Ally Pally to become the sport's youngest world champion. Littler replied: 'It has to be the Worlds. But my personal favourite? 'Obviously, the Premier League at 17, winning that on debut and all the doubters saying if I am ready or not. 'That meant the most. But picking up the worlds, I think that is the best.'
