Manchester United face a packed festive period upon the resumption of the domestic season.
The Reds have had a five-and-a-half-week lay-off since the dramatic 2-1 win over Fulham in which Alejandro Garnacho scored a stoppage-time winner. The 18-year-old could play an important part for United going forward into the second half of the season, especially in the immediate future.
United play six games in the next month, including three before the new year with the carrot of a top-four place at stake heading into 2023. Erik ten Hag will need as many players as possible staying fit to avoid a disjointed set-up during an important part of the campaign.
