Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has admitted he is concerned for the players who don't feature at the World Cup in Qatar due to the potential drop off in focus.
The Reds will be without a number of their first-team players during the upcoming tournament, with 15 players at present having been picked to represent their country.
While Ten Hag is excited to watch his United players in action at the World Cup, he has suggested that it is "strange" to have it in the middle of the season, while also insisting that there could be consequences for the players who travel but don't actually feature in the tournament.
