Manchester United finished 15th in the Premier League with a 2 -0 win over Aston Villa .

The Red Devils have flown to Malaysia for a two -match pre-season trip to Asia .

Manager Ruben Amorim has taken 32 players on the trip - including Bruno Fernandes , Casemiro and Alejandro Garnacho .

The trip is thought to generate about $10 m for the club, but comes at the end of a season where United have played 60 games in all competitions.

Former Manchester City defender Michael Brown told BBC Radio 5 Live's Football Daily podcast: "At the end of the season , you walk around the pitch and you get that feeling of 'I'm done, I'm finished' and you want to go and put your feet up and have the mental rest before the international games. You look forward to the break. "I understand why they want want to do it financially, but it shouldn't be allowed." Former England goalkeeper Paul Robinson added: "Not a single one of those players will want to go, but they are commercially obliged to go in their contracts.".
