Romero, Jones and Rojo left out of Manchester United's CL squad

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has not registered goalkeeper Sergio Romero or defenders Phil Jones and Marcos Rojo in his squad for the group stages of the Champions League. 

Romero, who frequently kept goal for United in the Europa League and cup competitions in recent seasons, misses out with United instead registering Dean Henderson and Lee Grant as backup to David de Gea.

With Eric Bailly, Tim Fosu-Mensah, Victor Lindelof, Harry Maguire all vying for starting places in the centre of defence in the group stages, Rojo and Jones have been left out.

New signings Donny van de Beek, Edinson Cavani, Alex Telles and Facundo Pellistri are all included in the 25-man squad for their upcoming games with PSG, RB Leipzig and Basaksehir.

Mason Greenwood and Brandon Williams count as underage home-grown players and don't need to be registered in the "A" list.

David De Gea, Dean Henderson, Lee Grant
