United fly to Asia tonight
Manchester United's squad will head to the airport immediately after their Premier League campaign is concluded and fly out on post-season tour to Asia tonight.
Squads at other clubs will be looking forward to spending time with their family but United have a game in Kuala Lumpur against ASEAN All Stars on Wednesday, followed by a game in Hong Kong. This has the feeling of getting a detention on the final day of term.

Sky Sports unveil six major changes to how they'll show new Premier League season
Sky Sports have unveiled a rebrand of their Premier League coverage ahead of the first season of the new £6.7billion broadcast deal, with Multiview the biggest change Sky Sports have made major changes to the way they broadcast Premier League football ahead of the 2025/26 season. Sky will show 215 matches this season – up from 128 in 2024/25 – and are attempting to freshen up their offering for fans in the first year of their new four-year £6.7billion rights deal. The broadcaster has made no secret about their desire to court a younger audience and have undergone sweeping personnel changes in recent years. And ahead of the start of the Premier League season this weekend, Sky have announced a raft of fresh changes. The headline change is the introduction of Multiview, where viewers will be able to follow up to four matches simultaneously. The move echoes the famous Red Zone programme from NFL and is most likely to be seen on Sundays in the new season, with one match as the main screen and three others shown smaller and one commentary team flitting between them. 'The question for us has been how can we enhance what we've got? And how can we utilise the new rights?' said Sky's director of football Gary Hughes. 'Having four simultaneous games, we might even have five on some midweeks, means it's just the best way we can offer the best use of the assets that we've got. There could be some chaos to it, but that's the beauty of having all those games at once.' All the final games on the last day of the season will be live, while Sky have also changed their theme music, replacing Celeste's Stop This Flame with a revamped version of G.O.A.T by Kasabian ft. Cristale. Their desire to chase younger viewers was shown by the hiring of Roman Kemp to front a show called Premier League Friday and it's also clear in the use of fans from each of the 20 Premier league clubs in their coverage. Meanwhile, there is a new role for Jamie Carragher, who will front a new show called Extra Time on Sundays, after the classic Super Sunday programme. There is a new, if familiar, presenter in the form of Mark Chapman, who – like Kelly Cates – will combine presenting Match of the Day on the BBC with working for Sky. Chief sports officer for Sky, Jonathan Licht, said: 'This is a landmark season for Sky Sports and the Premier League. For the first time, we'll bring fans over 215 live matches, including every 2pm kick-off on Super Sunday. 'We're introducing new innovations like Multiview, new programmes like Super Sunday: Extra Time, and a new look schedule for Sky Sports News. From the moment the season kicks off, we'll be helping fans stay across all the biggest stories and making sure they never miss a moment of the action.'
