Manchester United squad members vs Tottenham revealed as Bruno Fernandes included

Bruno Fernandes has been included in the Manchester United travelling squad ahead of their trip to face Tottenham.

The Portuguese midfielder had been labelled a doubt for the game but appears to be in contention to feature after travelling to London with the rest of the first-team squad on Thursday morning.

Fernandes sustained an injury to his right ankle in the first half of the FA Cup semi-final with Brighton last weekend but played out the full 90 minutes before withdrawing ahead of extra time.

The 28-year-old was pictured with his ankle in a support brace and propped up on cushions in the wake of the win, with crutches and a protective boot also visible.

However, he was present at United's Carrington training complex on Wednesday - walking without crutches or a protective boot - but Erik ten Hag admitted there was still a "question mark" next to his name heading into the match.

United have changed their regular travel routine by flying on the day of the game, rather than the day before. The match kicks off at 8:15pm at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Harry Maguire, Luke Shaw and Marcel Sabitzer were not spotted by photographers with the rest of the squad, though it is understood they are likely to have arrived seperately from the bus their teammates were on.

There was also no sign of youngsters Zidane Iqbal or Facundo Pellistri as part of the main group of players that arrived at Manchester Airport.

Confirmed United travelling squad members vs Tottenham:

De Gea, Butland, Bishop; Wan-Bissaka, Dalot, Lindelof, Malacia; Fred, Casemiro, Eriksen, Fernandes; Antony, Elanga, Sancho, Rashford, Martial, Weghorst.
