Harry Maguire has been a dressing room presence in Manchester United's last two Premier League games. Maguire had been training in Portugal at the Quinta do Lago resort to recover from a thigh strain that has sidelined him for the last three games.

The 29-year-old ensured he returned in time to attend United's 2-1 win at Everton on Sunday, having been at the Manchester derby a week earlier.

United players are required to be in attendance for home games unless they have permission to be elsewhere but are not expected to go to away games.

Maguire usually attends domestic United fixtures irrespective of his availability and he was advised by club great Wayne Rooney last season.
