Six players ruled out of man united vs tottenham europa league final

EITHER MAN UNITED OR TOTTENHAM WILL BE CROWNED EUROPA LEAGUE WINNERS THIS EVENING AND SECURE A PLACE IN NEXT SEASON'S CHAMPIONS LEAGUE. 04:15, 21 May 2025 It's matchday. Manchester

United will face Tottenham Hotspur tonight with the Europa League trophy and a place in next season's Champions League up for grabs. There was good news for United yesterday as Leny

Yoro and Diogo Dalot both took part in training at Carrington before being named in Ruben Amorim's 26-man travelling squad for the trip to Bilbao. The biggest surprise was they were

joined by Joshua Zirkzee. The Dutchman has been out of action since the defeat to Newcastle on April 13 and even though he recently claimed it would not be "impossible" for him to

recover in time for the final, it seemed very unlikely after Amorim had previously ruled him out for the season. The United head coach said of the trio: "They recovered quite well. They

pushed. Of course we respect the feeling of the player, but we pushed a little bit because they wanted to be part of the team and that is a very, very good sign. "And it's very

good for us. Of course they are limited in the minutes for the game, but they can help us to win the game." There wasn't such good news on Matthijs de Ligt. The defeneder has

travelled to Bilbao with his teammates but will play no part in tonight's game, meaning the Dutchman and Lisandro Martinez are the only two United players to miss out through injury.

miss the final having undergone surgery, with James Maddison also set to miss out. The latter has travelled with the squad, sparking talk that he could make a return from injury having been

ruled out for the season. However, Ange Postecoglou confirmed Spurs' injury situation hasn't changed and so Maddison remains out of action. Postecoglou also confirmed that Lucas

Bergvall is still sidelined. Radu Dragusin is a long-term absentee having ruptured his ACL in January and he will play no part tonight. --- _Here at the Manchester Evening News, we’re
