Manchester United team news: Injury, suspension list vs. LASK Linz

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their Europa League tie with LASK Linz.

Manchester United head into the first leg of their Europa League last-16 tie with LASK Linz having put together a 10-match unbeaten run in all competitions.

The latest of the positive results came on Sunday afternoon as United recorded a 2-0 victory over neighbours Manchester City in the Premier League.

With ambitions to earn a place in next season's Champions League, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer must now decide how to shuffle his pack for the trip to Austria later this week

Here, Sports Mole rounds up United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Thursday night's fixture.

Type of injury: Ankle
Possible return date: March 19 (vs. LASK Linz)

Having spent time working with the club's physios last week, Pogba is due to return to first-team training this week. However, while the World Cup winner is not expected to be in contention for Thursday's game, next week's second leg appears to be a possibility.


Marcus Rashford
