Manchester United will be without seven players for the upcoming Premier League clash against Newcastle United on Boxing Day.
The Red Devils are currently three points adrift of fourth-placed Chelsea and will be aiming to close the gap with a victory on Friday.
Ahead of the game, manager Ruben Amorim has confirmed worrying news with Bruno Fernandes and Kobbie Mainoo out with injuries.
Fernandes picked up a hamstring injury against Aston Villa last weekend while Mainoo sustained a calf issue in the lead-up to the game.
Alongside the duo, Harry Maguire and Matthijs de Ligt have been ruled out with hamstring and back injuries respectively.
United will also be without Noussair Mazraoui, Amad Diallo and Bryan Mbeumo due to Africa Cup of Nations duty.
Hence, the club are depleted of options and face a huge challenge on their hands to beat Newcastle United on Boxing Day.
A victory over the Magpies would be a huge statement from the Red Devils in their pursuit of Champions League football.
