Amad Diallo and De Ligt returned to Manchester United’s squad training at Carrington on Wednesday morning after being injured for a few weeks/months.
After suffering an injury in training, Manchester United considered Amad Diallo, along with Argentine defender Lisandro Martinez, to be ruled out for the season.
However, the Ivorian winger has been working hard and pushing for a return to help his teammates for the last games of the season, and with Manchester United still in the Europa League competition, he will be important.
Manchester United’s league form gets worse after Amad Diallo’s injury, but the team still managed to stay unbeaten in the Europa League campaign so far. Amad is regarded as the best player in the squad and always gives his all on the pitch.
Ruben Amorim and his boys traveled to Spain on Wednesday afternoon ahead of the Europa League first leg clash. Speaking to the media, Amorim has confirmed the status of De Ligt and Amad Diallo for the game.
Is De Ligt and Amad available vs Athletic Bilbao?
Amad Diallo and De Ligt returned to full training on Wednesday morning and have traveled with the squad to Spain. Both players are available to face the La Liga outfit on Thursday.
Ruben Amorim has also confirmed that De Ligt and Amad Diallo will be on the matchday squad, but they are not ready to start yet.
According to multiple reports, Manchester United planned to give Amad Diallo and De Ligt some minutes in the Premier League against Brentford, but they will be called upon when needed on Thursday night.
Manchester United midfielder Toby Collyer is also back to individual training on the grass, but not yet ready to play. Amad Diallo and De Ligt coming back is a huge boost for Ruben Amorim.
