Team News

Manchester United missed the service of Raphael Varane during the match against Omonia FC. The French world cup winner got a knock playing against Man City. However, the manager is hopeful to get him back for tomorrow’s clash. But Man United have more injury concerns. Captain Harry Maguire is not available for the match. Aaron Wan Bissaka and Donny Van de Beek are also unavailable due to injuries.

Donny Van de Beek hasn’t been featured in the starting XI this season. The manager talked about him in today’s press conference. Erik Ten Hag said, “He[ De Beek] had a muscle injury and so it takes him a couple of weeks. He’s now back on the training grass so he’s outside doing his work but still individually. He’s not returned to team training so we have to wait for that moment.”

Donny must also fight for his place, according to the manager. Erik said, “He[ De Beek] has to be fit. Obviously, that is a disadvantage. He has now been here for two-and-a-half years. He had pre-season, which was quite okay, then his chances will come. When he came on against Brighton, he came on as a sub and did very well but you have to be available and when you are not available you cannot get a place in the first XI. Now he has to make sure he gets fit and fights for his position.”
