Man United injury, suspension news vs. Leicester City: Will Luke Shaw be fit for FA Cup tie?

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester United's injury and suspension news ahead of Friday's FA Cup fourth round tie with Leicester City.

Manchester United are back in action on Friday night when they play host to Leicester City in the FA Cup fourth round.

With United struggling for a top-eight finish in the Premier League table, Ruben Amorim is expected to name a strong side for the meeting at Old Trafford.

Although the Red Devils head into this contest having only lost two of their eight matches during 2025, they succumbed to defeat at home to Crystal Palace on Sunday.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Man United's injury and suspension news ahead of their contest with Leicester as they again welcome back club legend Ruud van Nistelrooy.
