Ruben Amorim delivers team news for Real Sociedad v Man Utd
REAL SOCIEDAD’S TEAM NEWS
The hosts have confirmed their squad for the encounter, with key midfielder Martin Zubimendi included after training this week. He had limped out of the 4-0 defeat to Barcelona in La Liga at the weekend.
Takefusa Kubo is also available again and West Ham United defender Nayef Aguerd, on loan from the Premier League side, is a familiar face at the back.
Coach Imanol Alguacil commented: “United are a great team in Europe, with a great history, and that we are able to face them these years is a positive thing.
“They have a great team, with a great coach. In the league they are not having results but, in play, they are doing things well, different. Tomorrow, I expect a tough opponent, not because of their history, but because of their players. It will be very difficult and we will have to give everything to compete.
“If someone has us as favourites, they don’t know what football is and what we have in front of us. Despite the injuries they have, they have great players, and I am not going to lack respect for a team like this.”
