Amorim names United team to face Bodo/Glimt
Thursday 28 November 2024 18:45
The team news is in for Ruben Amorim’s first Old Trafford outing as Manchester United’s head coach.
The Reds take on Bodo/Glimt in our fifth Europa League match of the season, for what is our first-ever competitive meeting with Norwegian opposition.
Of course it is also a historic night as Amorim takes charge of a maiden game in M16 and he has made six changes to the side which drew 1-1 at Ipswich on Sunday.
Tyrell Malacia makes his first senior Reds appearance in 550 days, a fortnight on from completing 45 minutes for our Under-21s at Huddersfield.
The Dutch defender has been sidelined since the end of the 2022/23 campaign and has been working diligently towards a return at Carrington for a while now.
