The 2018–19 season is Manchester United's 27th season in the Premier League and their 44th consecutive season in the top flight of English football. The club is participating in the Premier League, the FA Cup and the UEFA Champions League. They also entered the EFL Cup, but were eliminated after losing to Derby County in the third round.

This season is the first since 2005–06 without club captain Michael Carrick, who retired after the 2017–18 season and joined the club's coaching staff.[1] Assistant manager Rui Faria left the club at the conclusion of the 2017–18 season, with Carrick and Kieran McKenna replacing him as the club's first-team coaches.[2]

Pre-season and friendlies

United preceded their 2018–19 campaign with tour of the United States. The first three games were announced on 3 April 2018, with the opposition provided by Club América, San Jose Earthquakes and Liverpool.[3] The club later announced that the tour would see them compete in the 2018 International Champions Cup.[4] In the 2018 competition, United played against Milan at the StubHub Center in Carson, California, Liverpool at the Michigan Stadium in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and Real Madrid at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida.[5] Alexis Sánchez's arrival in the United States was delayed as he was not issued with a visa due to the 16-month suspended jail sentence he accepted in February for tax fraud during his time in Spain.[6] The final pre-season game saw Manchester United play away to Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena on 5 August.[7]
