The players arrived at the team hotel by coach, where they were greeted by a small gathering of supporters looking to catch a glimpse of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's outfit. 

A few police officers were also on hand to watch over events as United's smartly dressed stars cut a relaxed and focused mood as they made their way towards the hotel.

Alexis Sanchez was named among United's travelling contingent with the Chilean having been sidelined for the last six weeks because of a knee injury.

Sanchez returns to bolster an attack that failed to register a shot on target in the first leg loss. Nemanja Matic and Matteo Darmian are also part of the 22-man squad.

United's first port of call is to hold a press conference before they train on the Nou Camp pitch later on Monday. 

United head into Tuesday's clash having got back into winning ways at the weekend with a 2-0 victory over West Ham United at Old Trafford in the Premier League.

The result kept alive the Red Devil's hopes of reaching the top four and booking a spot in the Champions League next season.
