Erik ten Hag has confirmed that Sergio Reguilon has trained with the Manchester United squad ahead of tomorrow’s crucial Champions League clash against FC Copenhagen.
Sergio Reguilon has been absent for Erik ten Hag’s side since he came off late on away at Burnley last month and it now seems he has recovered from the hamstring injury he suffered.
The Spaniard has made a good start in a red shirt and it seems the left-back will be available in what would be a huge coup for Manchester United who need more attacking threat from the left side.
Reguilon is surely set to come in for the Red Devils against the Danish side.
Ten Hag on Reguilon
Speaking in his pre-match press conference ahead of the monumental Champions League clash, Ten Hag confirmed the defender has trained with the team.
“Sergio trained all week, today he will train, then we have to assess if he is game fit or can be available in the squad,” the manager said when asked about the fitness of the defender.
Victor Lindelof has been filling in at left-back, with Sofyan Amrabat also taking the role before the Swede but, to ten Hag’s relief, the former Sevilla left-back is back.
Lindelof to be dropped
The Swedish defender, as mentioned, has played at left-back and has looked out of sorts in that position so it seems likely he will be replaced.
The worry could be for Harry Maguire, as Ten Hag seems to prefer Lindelof over the 30-year-old, although it would be incredibly harsh if the former Ajax boss were to drop him.
Dependent on Raphael Varane’s fitness, it should be the Frenchman alongside Maguire at the heart of the defence with Reguilon and Diogo Dalot, off the back of his heroics over the weekend, starting at right-back.
This really is a must-win game for the Red Devils.
