The Manchester United matchday squad for tonight’s match against Athletic Club includes both Amad Diallo and Matthijs de Ligt.
Ruben Amorim has been given a significant injury boost for United’s crucial Europa League semi-final first leg in Bilbao, marking the team’s return to action.
According to Manchester Evening News, both De Ligt and Amad resumed their training this week and were judged to be fit to play against Athletic Club, but they are anticipated to start on the bench.
Whether one of them will play is still up in the air as United look to carefully manage their fitness, but they could both be involved in this weekend’s Premier League match against Brentford.

Two players will not be included in the final matchday selection, but Amorim has picked a traveling team of 26 for the trip to Bilbao.
Another positive injury update is that Altay Bayindir, who was injured recently, is now back and will start on the bench at San Mames Stadium.
When United resume Premier League action this weekend, he is another player who might receive a rare start. Before returning to the United Kingdom for their game against Brentford, United will train in Bilbao on Friday.
The players included in the matchday squad are as follow: Andre Onana, Altay Bayindir, Tom Heaton; Harry Amass, Matthijs de Ligt, Patrick Chinazaekpere Dorgu, Jonny Evans, Tyler Fredricson, Jaydan Kamason, Victor Lindelof, Harry Maguire, Noussair Mazraoui, Luke Shaw, Leny Yoro; Casemiro, Christian Eriksen, Bruno Fernandes, Kobbie Mainoo, Mason Mount, Manuel Ugarte; Amad, Bendito Mantato, Alejandro Garnacho, Rasmus Hojlund.
