Ruben Amorim press conference live Manchester United injury updates ahead of Real Sociedad clash

Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim will speak to the media this evening to look ahead to tomorrow night's Europa League last-16 first leg clash with Real Sociedad in Spain.

United progressed to the knockout stages of the competition back in January after finishing as one of the top eight teams in the new-look league phase. They won five of their eight matches, drawing the remaining three, to progress as the only unbeaten team.

Following Sunday's FA Cup fifth round exit at the hands of Fulham, United's season now hinges on winning the Europa League. Success in this competition would secure Champions League qualification for next term.

United's players trained at Carrington in front of the media this morning and Amorim, alongside defender Matthijs de Ligt, will speak to the media at the Reale Arena in San Sebastian this evening to preview the game and share the latest on the injury front.
