IbrahimovicManchester United marquee signing Zlatan Ibrahimovic is unlikely to be involved in a pre-season tour of China, according to BBC Sport.

The Swedish striker recently joined the Red Devils on a free transfer from Paris Saint-Germain and the fans are eagerly awaiting his debut.

Manchester United are set to face Borussia Dortmund (22 July) and Manchester City (25 July) at the International Champions Cup in China, but the 34-year-old is unlikely to feature.

The Red Devils will travel to China on Tuesday, and England internationals Wayne Rooney, Chris Smalling and Marcus Rashford will be on the plane even though they will not play in said two matches.

An under-strength Manchester United side will also face Salford City at Moor Lane on 26 July and it is believed that Zlatan Ibrahimovic will take part in that game.

On the other hand, senior United team will face Galatasaray in Gothenburg on 30 July, with the striker widely expected to play in his native country.

Having also recruited the likes of Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Eric Bailly, the Red Devils will be looking to mount a serious title challenge in EPL and they are available at 4.50 (7/2) to go all the way.
