What’s happening at United this week?
With both Europa League and Premier League action returning to Old Trafford, Manchester United have a hectic week in store.
We bet a lot of Reds enjoyed Sunday’s 3-1 win against Tottenham Hotspur in London. Now, attention turns to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side’s second leg in the Europa League quarter-final against Granada before the week comes to an end with an Old Trafford visit from Burnley in the Premier League.
In addition, Casey Stoney’s team enter the Women’s FA Cup this weekend and both our Under-18s and Under-23s are also in action this week.
Here’s how seven exciting days at United shapes up…
