Manchester United GUARANTEED to play European football next season after Wolves' thumping defeat at the hands of Man City... with the Red Devils locked in a battle with West Ham to avoid playing in the Europa Conference League

Manchester United are guaranteed to be playing European football next season as a result of Wolves being thrashed 5-1 by Man City.

In what has been a tumultuous campaign for the Red Devils, they were at risk of not qualifying for any European competition due to their disappointing position in the league table.

It would have been a bitter blow for incoming United manager Erik ten Hag, who will be looking to turn around the club's fortunes when he arrives this summer.
