Manchester United transfer news LIVE Man United vs Tottenham team news and McTominay latest

Manchester United welcome Tottenham Hotspur to Old Trafford in the Premier League on Saturday evening.

United were humiliated in the Manchester derby against Manchester City at the weekend and they'll be hoping to positively respond to that 4-1 defeat. Cristiano Ronaldo will be available for selection after being forced to miss the derby at the Etihad with a hip injury.

United have slipped down to fifth in the Premier League table and this game against Tottenham could have huge ramifications in the race for Champions League football. United are just one point behind fourth-placed Arsenal, but the North London club have three games in hand — meaning Ralf Rangnick's side can ill afford to drop more points.

In regards to United's full team news, Luke Shaw is unavailable after testing positive for Covid-19 earlier in the week and Scott McTominay is a doubt with a calf problem, but Edinson Cavani is set to make his return from injury.

Manchester United have made initial enquiries about signing Lyon forward Moussa Dembele in the summer transfer window. It comes after Ralf Rangnick advised United to look at signing a younger striker at the end of the season.

The Manchester Evening News understands there is some interest from United over a possible deal, although the 25-year-old is just one of a number of players currently being looked at.

A source close to the Lyon player reiterated that Dembele would only be viewed as a squad player if he were to move to United this summer and that he'd likely be viewed as a replacement for the departing Edinson Cavani, rather than as a regular starter.
