Marc Jurado has been named in the Manchester United squad for the first time against Nottingham Forest. Right-back Jurado arrived at the City Ground with the rest of the United players on Sunday afternoon but Luke Shaw was not present.

Scott McTominay and Tyrell Malacia were also missing. Shaw came off in the 1-0 win over Brentford with an unspecified injury last week and has missed the last two games against Sevilla and Everton.
