Galatasaray name travelling squad to face Manchester United in the Champions League

Galatasaray travel to Manchester United without Chelsea winger Hakim Ziyech for their Champions League group stage clash on Tuesday night.

Forwards: Cedric Bakambu, Mauro Icardi, Dries Mertens, Wilfried Zaha.

The Reds have been buoyed by the news of Kobbie Mainoo taking part in training on the eve of the Galatasaray match, but it is unclear if he will be fit enough to play a part. Meanwhile, Ten Hag
