Manchester United incoming manager Ruben Amorim broke down in tears after Trio player who was supposed to be the main man against PAOK in the Europa league today has been injured in training this morning
It appears that Manchester United will not be include Harry Amass, Jack Fletcher, or Ethan Wheatley in their roster for Thursday night’s Europa League match against PAOK at Old Trafford.
The three missed the club’s open training session at Carrington on Wednesday morning, but United has since announced that they are part of their UEFA Youth League squad for tonight’s match against FK Zalgiris.
At Leigh Sports Village this evening, United’s Under-19 team will play the Lithuanian team in the second leg of their UEFA Youth League second round match. United won the opening leg last month 5-2.
Prior to tonight’s match, United has revealed that they have added Amass and Wheatley to their roster. In United’s most recent Europa League match against Fenerbahce, Amass and Wheatley were both benched.
For the previous three games, United has used Amass, Wheatley, and Fletcher as substitutes. During the recent matches against Chelsea and Leicester City, Jayce Fitzgerald was one of the replacements.
But just two young players, Daniel Armer and Jack Kingdon, were part of the 25-man United team that practiced in front of the media on Wednesday at Carrington. It appears that Amass, Fletcher, and Wheatley will not be involved in the fight against PAOK.
Amass, who has not played for United in the first team yet, may start at left-back for the Under-19s tonight evening. Wheatley has joined a group of attackers that already includes Gabriele Biancheri, Bendito Mantato, and Victor Musa.
Sekou Kone, a summer acquisition, may make his European debut for United’s youth team tonight evening, the club has also stated. Last weekend, he made his debut for the team’s Under-21 squad, coming on as a substitute in the second half of their 5-2 loss to Sunderland.
Chido Obi-Martin, another recent addition, is not involved in tonight’s UEFA Youth League match.
