Two Manchester United players in line to return vs Aston Villa
manchestereveningnews.co.ukManchester United manager Erik ten Hag is hopeful Raphael Varane will return for the Boxing Day game at home to Aston Villa.
Varane missed the 2-0 defeat at West Ham on Saturday through illness as Ten Hag was forced to give a full debut to 19-year-old centre half Willy Kambwala.
Amad is also under consideration for his first inclusion in a United matchday squad since December 2021. The 21-year-old has been involved in team training for two weeks, having recovered from a knee injury sustained during pre-season in July. "I think hopefully Rapha Varane will return," Ten Hag said. "So for the rest: maybe Amad Diallo.
See how far he is. He has trained for two weeks now. They are probably the ones who can maybe return." READ MORE: Why Hojlund was substituted at West Ham READ MORE: Ten Hag explains what went wrong in latest defeat Ten Hag confirmed Anthony Martial is still unwell.
