On November 26, 2019, Manchester United players and manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer stepped out in style at a charity gala at Old Trafford, raising KSh 34 million (£266,000) for disadvantaged children.
The event, set up by the club's charity partners, offered fans a chance to see and interact with the players away from the drama on the pitch.
Anthony Martial, Marcos Rojo, and other United stars were in attendance, but Paul Pogba was a notable absentee due to his ongoing ankle injury in the US.
During the gala, Solskjaer praised the charity event, saying, "When you see smiles on the children's faces and when you can give them experiences they wouldn't normally have, that's fantastic."
The funds raised will go towards helping the less fortunate in greater Manchester and some of the world's most vulnerable children.
After the event, the players will have to clean themselves up as they are set to travel to Kazakhstan for a Europa League clash with Astana on Thursday, November 28.
