Manchester United prepare to face Aston Villa in the Premier League on Boxing Day, December 26, 2023.

Ahead of the game, Erik ten Hag has provided an update on Raphael Varane and Amad Diallo.

Varane was absent against West Ham due to illness, while Diallo has been a long term injury concern after suffering a knee injury back in summer.

“I think hopefully Rapha Varane will return,” Ten Hag said. “So for the rest: maybe Amad Diallo. See how far he is. He has trained for two weeks now. They are probably the ones who can maybe return.”
