In an exclusive interview with MUTV, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer revealed that Axel Tuanzebe is among five defenders on the verge of a first-team return.
The 22-year-old has been missing since the Carabao Cup victory over Colchester United, but is in line to make a comeback soon, alongside long-term absentees Eric Bailly, Tim Fosu-Mensah, Diogo Dalot and Marcos Rojo.
“There’s a little bit of illness in the camp, but that’s normal through this time of year, so we just have to find out tomorrow who’s waking up okay,” Ole told Stewart Gardner prior to his pre-match press conference.
