Manchester United 2015/16 Champions League squad list announced

Manchester United have included their goalkeeper David de Gea in their Champions League squad for the group stages of the 2015/16 competition.

It had been assumed that De Gea would return to the Manchester United squad after his proposed move to Real Madrid fell through, and De Gea's camp had briefed that he would be perfectly happy to commit himself to United for another season. His inclusion in the squad confirms this is likely to be the case.

Victor Valdes has been left out, meaning Sam Johnstone and the Sergio Romero are two other goalkeepers. Guillermo Varela and Nick Powell have been included.

Full squad:

Goalkeepers

David de Gea, Sergio Romero, Sam Johnstone

Defenders

Phil Jones, Marcos Rojo, Chris Smalling, Luke Shaw, Guillermo Varela, Paddy McNair, Matteo Darmian

Michael Carrick, Daley Blind, Ashley Young, Ander Herrera, Nick Powell, Antonio Valencia, Marouane Fellaini, Morgan Scheiderlin, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Andreas Pereira, Jesse Lingard
