Amad, De Ligt, Heaven - Manchester United injury news and return dates as player could return vs Wolves today


Manchester United could welcome back an injured player when they face Wolves in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon. Ruben Amorim is set to rotate his squad following their Europa League epic against Lyon and his options could be boosted by the availability of an extra senior player.
The United head coach has already hinted Diogo Dalot could be rested for the match, while Bruno Fernandes could also be protected ahead of more important matches in the coming weeks. Rasmus Hojlund is expected to lead the line at Old Trafford today, though teenage striker Chido Obi could be handed a chance from the bench.
