Harry Maguire ‘OUT of Man Utd’s clash against Wolves with Phil Jones in contention to play first game in TWO YEARS’

HARRY MAGUIRE will miss Manchester United’s clash with Wolves on Monday night.

The Red Devils skipper has picked up a knock since playing the full 90 minutes against Burnley last week.

Maguire’s absence has sparked a defensive crisis at Old Trafford that could see Phil Jones called into action for his first senior game in TWO YEARS.

Harry Maguire managed the full 90 against Burnley last Thursday

The 29-year-old has just two U23 games under his belt this season and last made a Premier League appearance in January 2020.

But United manager Ralf Rangnick may be left with nowhere else to turn as options look thin on the ground.

Eric Bailly came off against Burnley just after the hour mark as he appeared to nurse a tight hamstring.

Fellow centre-back Victor Lindelof is trying to shake off Covid after a horror month that saw him also suffer a heart scare.

Nemanja Matic could drop back from midfield as a makeshift enforcer – a role he played against Young Boys last month.

Reports suggest Bailly may pass a late fitness test to partner fit-again Raphael Varane at the back.
