Michael Carrick has selected his final Manchester United side of the 2025/26 season as his Red Devils face Brighton & Hove Albion at the Amex Stadium.

It was decided in advance that last week’s home game against Nottingham Forest would be Casemiro’s last in a red shirt, so he has not travelled with the squad.

Benjamin Sesko and Matthijs de Ligt are still injured and also miss the game. With a third-place finish in the Premier League guaranteed, Carrick has still fielded a strong starting line-up as the Seagulls are fighting for a European place.

Defence

Senne Lammens is in goal.

The back four are Noussair Mazraoui, Harry Maguire, Lisandro Martínez and Luke Shaw.

The historically injury-prone Shaw completes a full season in the starting line-up today.

Diogo Dalot is not included in the squad, we have not heard yet whether he is injured.

Midfield and Attack

Kobbie Mainoo is partnered by Mason Mount in central midfield.

Ahead of them, Bruno Fernandes is in the number 10 role, with Patrick Dorgu on the left wing and Amad on the right.

Fernandes equalled Thierry Henry and Kevin De Bruyne’s record of 20 assists in a Premier League season and will be in the hunt for another today to claim the record outright.

Bryan Mbeumo is up front.

Substitutes

On the bench are reserve keeper Altay Bayindir, Leny Yoro, Ayden Heaven, Tyrell Malacia, Tyler Fletcher, Manuel Ugarte, Matheus Cunha, Joshua Zirkzee and Shea Lacey.

If Malacia gets minutes it will be his last game for United with his contract expiring next month.

Kick-off in Brighton is at 4pm.
