Joshua Zirkzee, who had also been ruled out through the end of the campaign after injuring his hamstring, was a surprise appearance in team training at Carrington on Tuesday. Given the extended absence, the Dutch forward might be more likely to start on the bench in Spain, with Rasmus Højlund in line to start.

United took a more adventurous route to the final, beating Real Sociedad before pulling off a spectacular comeback against Lyon and then comprehensively beating an Athletic Club side who'd been dreaming of a home European final. United curiously remain the only unbeaten side across European competition this season.
