Ralf Rangnick confirms Man Utd boost for Southampton game
Manchester United manager Ralf Rangnick has confirmed the availability of Alex Telles for the Premier League clash against Southampton.
The Red Devils have been disappointing since the restart this month. They bowed out of the FA Cup at the hands of Middlesbrough.
Meanwhile, Burnley drew 1-1 against them in the league. Ahead of tomorrow's game, Rangnick has confirmed a fitness boost for the club.
Telles was a regular left-back for the Red Devils before the international break, but he was sidelined last week due to coronavirus.
The Brazilian has returned to full training ahead of the Saints clash, and Rangnick will make a late decision over his selection.
Telles has been better offensively and defensively compared to Luke Shaw, and he could be preferred ahead of the Englishman.
Elsewhere, Rangnick has backed Harry Maguire to continue in central defence despite his poor showing against the Clarets.
There have been calls for Maguire to be dropped and stripped of captaincy, but Rangnick has his full confidence in the 28-year-old.
