After initially looking like he would have a fully fit squad to face Manchester City, Ralf Rangnick now appears to have been dealt four hefty blows on the eve of the game.
A 21-man Manchester United squad gathered at The Lowry Hotel on Saturday evening ahead of the crucial Manchester derby on Sunday afternoon. However, Cristiano Ronaldo was not among them and neither were Edinson Cavani, Raphael Varane or Luke Shaw, which makes United significantly weaker ahead of facing their cross-town rivals.
In his pre-match press conference, Rangnick had revealed that Cavani had returned to training and could be involved after suffering a groin problem. However, this doesn't appear to be the case and he looks set to miss a sixth game in a row.
