Manchester United team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Young Boys

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester United's injury and suspension news ahead of Wednesday's Champions League clash with Young Boys.

Manchester United will be looking to end their 2021-22 Champions League group-stage campaign on a positive note when they welcome Young Boys to Old Trafford on Wednesday.

Ralf Rangnick led the Red Devils to a 1-0 victory over Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Saturday, which moved the team into sixth position in the table.

Man United will now take on Young Boys in a pressure-free contest, as the 20-time English champions have already booked their spot in the next round of the Champions League as group winners.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the team's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest with Young Boys, who will finish third in Group F if they win and Atalanta BC lose to Villarreal.
