Man United could be without five players for the Europa League final against Tottenham on Wednesday night.
There is a lot riding on the result as the winner won’t only bag themselves a European trophy, but also a spot in the Champions League next season, which will help with player recruitment and finances heading into the summer.
Ahead of the game, both Ruben Amorim and Ange Postecoglou are under considerable pressure, with the success of both their seasons riding on the game.

Tottenham injury news
Spurs are going to be missing six players for the final, with a couple of big names set to be unavailable due to injury problems.
First of all, defender Radu Dragusin has been out since February when he underwent surgery after suffering a severe ACL injury.
Dejan Kulusevski is a key player for Spurs that they will miss on Wednesday as he was ruled out for the rest of the season with a knee injury.
Youngster Dane Scarlett will be out with a groin injury and Timo Werner will also miss the game due to a hamstring problem. That means that Dominic Solanke and Mathys Tel are realistically Postecoglou’s only options up front.
Star midfielder James Maddison is also out, he is dealing with a season-ending knee injury. He isn’t the only casualty in midfield either as Lucas Bergvall will also miss the final.
Spurs players ruled out: Radu Dragusin, Dejan Kulusevski, Dane Scarlett, James Maddison, Timo Werner, Lucas Bergvall
