Youngster added to Europa League squad
Jayce Fitzgerald is now available for Manchester United's UEFA Europa League game against PAOK on Thursday night.
The Academy midfielder has been added to the UEFA B List, in advance of the 20:00 GMT kick-off at Old Trafford. Homegrown players under the age of 21 are eligible for the list if they also meet certain criteria, including having at least two years uninterrupted at the club since the age of 15.
Interim head coach Ruud van Nistelrooy gave the midfielder a first inclusion in a senior matchday squad in our 5-2 Carabao Cup victory over Leicester City last week, and the teenager retained that spot for Sunday's 1-1 draw against Chelsea.
Reds trio in line for return
ArticleRuud van Nistelrooy is hoping to include three Reds on the bench for the PAOK game following injury.
The 17-year-old played the first half of the Under-19s' 6-0 UEFA Youth League second-leg triumph over Zalgiris on Wednesday night at Leigh Sports Village. He was replaced at the break by summer arrival Sekou Kone.
Our no.75 was born in Salford and represents England at Under-17 level.
Of course, the actual matchday squad will not be released until 75 minutes prior to kick-off - with the United App the place to get the news as it breaks.
