Manchester United interim manager Ralf Rangnick hopes to have key players back at his disposal for the Premier League clash against Wolves on Monday . Bruno Fernandes returns from suspension, while Victor Lindelof and Raphael Varane are also expected to be available for a potential start again.
Ralf Rangnick said: “I hope that Victor could be back by then. Under normal circumstances, if the next test is negative, the PCR test is negative, he should be able to come back for this game. He has no symptoms so he should have no physical problems for that game. I was thinking of playing him [Varane] but the last time that happened after this muscle injury, he was then out for another couple of weeks, so we didn’t want to make the same mistake again. So that is why he was on the bench.”
French International Varane could start ahead of Eric Bailly, who is set to link up with Ivory Coast ahead of the Africa Cup of Nations.
