Man United injury, suspension news vs. Wolves: Latest Mason Mount, Matthijs de Ligt updates

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester United's injury and suspension news ahead of their Premier League clash with Wolverhampton Wanderers on Boxing Day.

Manchester United will look to bounce back from a heavy 3-0 defeat to Bournemouth when they travel to Molineux for their Boxing Day clash with Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Dean Huijsen, Justin Kluivert and Antoine Semenyo all got on the scoresheet on Sunday to condemn Man United to a 3-0 defeat at Old Trafford for the second straight season, leaving the Red Devils in 13th place with 22 points to their name after 17 games.

Ruben Amorim's side have now lost three of their previous four Premier League matches, while Wolves will be in high spirits after they cruised to a 3-0 victory over Leicester City in Vitor Pereira's first game in charge.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Man United's injury and suspension news ahead of their away clash with Wolves, who are sitting two points adrift of safety in 18th position.
