Manchester includes Zlatan Ibrahimovic and James Wilson as the surprise names in their Champions League squad, as confirmed by UEFA.
The 35-year-old forward rejoined United in August having been released at the end of last season but is still working his way back to fitness after suffering a cruciate knee ligament injury in April.
Ibrahimovic makes the squad as he is expected to return to first-team action before Christmas after signing a new deal at Manchester United.
Wilson has been recovering from cruciate ligament injury and has not played for Manchester United since October 2015; he returned in a Premier League 2 game last month.
Red Devil begins their Champions League campaign at home to Basel on September 12 before trips to CSKA Moscow on September 27 and Benfica on October 18.
They entertain Benfica at Old Trafford on October 31 before traveling to Basel on November 22, ending with a home match against CSKA on December 5.
