Ruud van Nistelrooy names final Manchester United line up as star dropped

Alejandro Garnacho has been dropped to the bench for Manchester United's Premier League clash with Leicester City on Sunday afternoon.

Ruud van Nistelrooy takes charge of United for the final time during his interim reign and has confirmed his starting line up as looks to end the four-game tenure with a win.

The Dutchman has made three changes from the side that defeated PAOK in the Europa League on Thursday night, with Marcus Rashford replacing Garnacho in attack, while Matthijs de Ligt and Lisandro Martinez return at centre-back in place of Victor Lindelof and Jonny Evans.

It means Casemiro and Manuel Ugarte continue their partnership in central midfield behind club captain Bruno Fernandes. Noussair Mazraoui and Diogo Dalot are the two full-backs, though it remains to be seen which side of defence they play in respectively.

Van Nistelrooy has opted with the most experienced bench available to him, which includes two goalkeepers rather than any academy hopefuls. Christian Eriksen, Mason Mount and Antony are all among the substitutes after they returned from injuries to be involved against PAOK.

United XI: Onana; Mazraoui, De Ligt, Martinez, Dalot; Casemiro, Ugarte, Fernandes; Amad, Rashford, Hojlund.

Subs: Bayındır, Heaton, Evans, Lindelof, Eriksen, Mount, Antony, Garnacho, Zirkzee.
