Players in the Man United travelling squad ahead of the Premier League fixture against Arsenal scheduled for Wednesday, have been revealed.
Man United's traveling squad for the highly anticipated Premier League clash against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium, with teenage defender Leny Yoro poised for a potential debut.
The 17-year-old, signed during the summer transfer window in a move that fended off interest from Real Madrid, has been sidelined since pre-season due to a fractured metatarsal sustained during United’s tour of the United States. However, Yoro has returned to fitness and joined the squad for Wednesday night's showdown in London.
United manager Ruben Amorim expressed optimism about Yoro's readiness, describing him as a "special talent" who fits the demands of modern football. "I feel that now is a good moment," Amorim stated. "He’s incredibly fast, good with the ball, and has the qualities needed for high pressing, especially in one-on-one situations. We need to manage his minutes carefully as he integrates fully, but I’m really excited to see him in action."
Yoro's inclusion comes as Lisandro Martinez and Kobbie Mainoo are unavailable due to suspension after accumulating five yellow cards. While the task of facing Arsenal is undoubtedly challenging, the teenager's involvement underscores Amorim’s trust in his potential and marks a significant milestone in the defender's burgeoning career.
