Manchester United fans are unable to have the names of three legends printed on their shirts and here's why.
Man United begin their pre-season tour of the United States on Sunday when they face West Ham United before taking on Bournemouth and Everton.
New signing Bryan Mbeumo, who cost £71 million, has been included in Man United's travelling party, having completed his move from Brentford in a deal that angered the Red Devils.
The players will be kitted out in Man United's new kits for the 2025/26 season, with the club releasing a new home and away shirt for the upcoming campaign.

The kits are available to purchase for fans, with X user @SmnLlyd5 taking his son to the club's store to buy him a new shirt.
And he took to social media to make the revelation that Man United fans are not allowed to print Eric Cantona, David Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo on shirts.
Why can't Manchester United fans have Eric Cantona, David Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo on shirts?
Cantona, Beckham and Ronaldo are three of Man United's biggest legends following their storied spells at Old Trafford.
Between the trio, they have won several major trophies, including the Premier League and the Champions League.
So, naturally, they are popular names to have on the back of shirts.
However, due to 'licensing restrictions', Man United are unable to print Cantona, Beckham and Ronaldo on shirts.
"Due to licensing restrictions, we are unable to print Cantona, Beckham and Ronaldo," a sign read.
Cantona joined Man United from Leeds United in 1992 and helped them win four league titles.
Beckham, who graduated from the club's famed youth academy, won six league titles during his spell at Old Trafford and was part of the club's treble-winning campaign in 1999.
As for Ronaldo, he made his name at Man United, winning three league titles and the Champions League.
