According to the "Mirror" report, Manchester United has begun preparations for the upcoming restart of club competitions. United face Burnley in the Carabao Cup on December 21 , before hosting Nottingham Forest in the Premier League.

According to the "Mirror", there are still a few points worthy of attention in Manchester United's training preparations.

First of all, Manchester United's young players can perform well in training and attract Ten Hag 's attention. In addition, Martial may become very important after Ronaldo's departure, especially in the case of Rashford's possible late return to the team. Lindelof will also get a chance, having rarely played since ten Hag took charge of Manchester United. With Maguire not yet back in training, Lisandro Martinez and Varane have to fight for the World Cup final, and Lindelof is the club's only fully fit key player ahead of the Burnley game. central defender.

Elsewhere, Tuanzebe will return to training after a few months out with injury. The last time he played for Manchester United was in the Europa League final in 2021. He was loaned to Aston Villa and Naples last season. Now after a period of recovery, he is close to full health.

Many fringe players on the team also participated in training and hoped to regain their chances. Erlanga, McTominay and Van de Beek have not been given regular starting places under ten Hag. Now it seems that they will usher in a good opportunity.
