Meanwhile Angel Di Maria is also a concern after going off injured in Argentina’s friendly with Portugal at Old Trafford last night, thanks to a hefty challenge from United loanee Nani.
Daley Blind has been confirmed as out for four to six weeks after he limped off injured in The Netherlands 6-0 win over Latvia on Friday with ligament damage.
Rafael, Jonny Evans and Phil Jones are also doubts while Luke Shaw picked up a knock in England’s friendly with Scotland last night, although the left-back did play on.
