Manchester United team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Wolverhampton Wanderers

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Saturday's Premier League clash with Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Manchester United will be looking to return to winning ways in the Premier League when they welcome Wolverhampton Wanderers to Old Trafford on February 1.

The Red Devils have lost their last two league fixtures to Liverpool and Burnley, although they are still fifth in the Premier League table, six points off fourth-placed Chelsea.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side did progress in the FA Cup with a 6-0 win over Tranmere Rovers last weekend, though, before beating Manchester City 1-0 at the Etihad Stadium in the EFL Cup on Wednesday night.

The victory over the English champions was not enough to progress to the final of the competition, though, as Pep Guardiola's team triumphed 3-2 on aggregate.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Wolves.

Paul Pogba underwent ankle surgery earlier this month but could be available for United's next Premier League match away to Chelsea on February 17. The France international continues to be strongly linked with a move away from Old Trafford but will stay for at least the remainder of the season.
