Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says that he has a number of injury concerns ahead of Manchester United’s tie with Real Sociedad in the first leg of the Europa League Round of 32 match tomorrow evening.
Speaking at today’s pre-match press conference ahead of the tie in Turin, a neutral venue arranged due to Covid quarantine issues, the boss confirmed that three players were definitely out of the tie and two remained doubtful.
‘Paul [Pogba], he’s recovering well, he’s starting the treatment, it’ll still be a few weeks so he won’t be playing in February, that’s for sure,’ Solskjaer said.
‘Apart from that we have a couple of doubts, Anthony [Martial] and Scott [McTominay], so we’ll have to check them tomorrow. And Donny [Van de Beek] and Edinson [Cavani] are definitely not travelling.’
‘Donny and Edinson are injured, unfortunately, they have muscle injuries.’
‘We have to play at a high level to get a result, of course we do.’
The manager also admitted that Juan Mata has been absent from the squad for a while but could take part tomorrow.
‘Juan’s been away for a little while, but now he’s back, he’s travelling with us, he’s been bright in training.’
