Man Utd handed double injury boost for Porto trip

02 October 2024 - 20:01

Manchester United have been handed a double injury boost ahead of the Europa League clash against Porto on Thursday night.

  • Chelsea make first move to sign Xabi Alonso
  • Chelsea ready new contract for star midfielder


  • The Red Devils have had a dismal run of performances. They have failed to win any of their previous three games in all competitions.

    The pressure is right on the shoulders of manager Erik ten Hag and the upcoming game in Portugal appears a must-win to keep his job.

    Ahead of the encounter, United have received a timely boost with Kobbie Mainoo and Harry Maguire back in full team training.

    Mainoo picked up a minor muscular issue against Spurs, but he has returned in time to travel with the team for tomorrow's fixture.

    The United graduate is likely to start alongside Manuel Ugarte in midfield.

    Harry Maguire has likewise recovered from a minor setback and it remains to be seen whether he will be included in the starting XI.

    Maguire has been rotated alongside Matthijs de Ligt for the past few weeks and we could see something similar against Porto too.
