Overview

  • Manchester United defenders Matthijs de Ligt, Leny Yoro, Ayden Heaven, and Diogo Dalot are doubtful for the Europa League final after missing group training on Wednesday.
  • De Ligt and Yoro sustained injuries during recent Premier League matches, with both undergoing individual fitness work as they aim to return for the final against Tottenham on May 21.
  • Dalot, sidelined since April with a calf injury, is progressing but remains at risk of aggravating his condition, prompting caution from head coach Ruben Amorim.
  • Ayden Heaven, recovering from a setback following a knock, has been limited to individual training, leaving his availability uncertain for the final.
  • Jonny Evans returned to team training, offering a potential boost for Friday's match against Chelsea, while Lisandro Martinez and Joshua Zirkzee are ruled out for the season.
