Lingard And Sanchez To Be Part Of Summer Transfer Clearout

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer may have to leave Mason Greenwood out of Manchester United’s line-up to face Crystal Palace on Thursday.

The 18-year-old’s ankle is “swollen and a bit blown up” after Oriol Romeu’s first-half challenge during their draw against Southampton on Monday night.

Solskjaer has named an unchanged starting line-up for United’s last five league matches, winning four of those games by three or more goals – a record Premier League run – before drawing with Saints.

He’s also at risk of being without left-backs Luke Shaw and Brandon Williams, who also picked up injuries against Saints.

“Luke has got a swollen ankle, so hopefully (he can be available),” Solskjaer said.

“I’ll give him as much time as possible to recover. It was a twist on his ankle.

“Brandon cut up his eye there, so I don’t really know.

“We’ve not trained this morning. None of them trained yesterday, so they were both swollen. I’ll give them as much time as possible to get the swelling away.”
