Premier League side, Manchester United have confirmed its 21-man squad for their Europa League clash against AC Milan on Thursday, March 18.

Paul Pogba, David De Gea, and Donny van de Beek have been included in Manchester United’s traveling squad for the second leg tie in San Siro on Thursday, March 18.

The World Cup-winning midfielder, Pogba, had been out with a thigh injury, missing United’s last 10 matches.

David De Gea has also been absent since the goalless draw with Chelsea on February 28 following the birth of his daughter in Spain. Van de Beek could also be in line to make his first appearance since February 14 after returning from injury.

‘We are happy to have Donny back, Paul and David. Big players,’ Solskjaer told MUTV. ‘Unfortunately, it looks like Edinson has got a bit of a reaction to training today and didn’t feel ready to travel.’

Anthony Martial, Eric Bailly, and Juan Mata have all missed out on a place in United’s traveling squad due to injury.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side was held to a 1-1 draw by Milan in the first leg at Old Trafford last week.
