Jonny Evans meanwhile will wear no35 after signing a one-year deal with the club.

The arrival of Sofyan Amrabat rounded off United’s flurry of late business.

The 26-year-old joined Erik ten Hag’s side on  an initial one-year loan deal with the option to make the deal permanent next summer.

Hojlund, Reguilon, Bayindir and Evans have all travelled to north London along with Hojlund.

Jadon Sancho and Scott McTominay have reportedly not made the journey, potentially joining United’s lengthy injury list which already includes Shaw, Malacia, Mason Mount, Raphael Varane, Kobbie Mainoo and Amad Diallo.
