As indicated by The Metro, Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has said that he is prepared to unleash Hannibal Mejbri against Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The Red Devils end their Premier League season away at the Molineux in what will be Nuno Espirito Santo’s last game as a manager for the club. With runner-up position secured in the Premier League and the Europa League final to come, Solskjaer could utilize the match to try out his new strategies.
The Norwegian looks set to rest his first-group stars and give youth players a chance to sign on Sunday. Players like Amad Diallo, Anthony Elanga, and Shola Shoretire have all made their first-team debut and are in line to include tomorrow.
Another promising player Hannibal Mejbri is anyway set to make his introduction for the senior squad. He was about to get his debut before but it was delayed due to injury. Having won the club’s reserve team player of the year grant, Mejbri could end the season on a high by showing up for the senior team.
Solksjaer said: “Hannibal and Shola, both of them will be involved. Maybe we can get some minutes in them.”
Two first-group stars who will anyway pass up a major opportunity are Anthony Martial and Harry Maguire. The two players are running to be fit against Villarreal. As things stand, the former player has a superior possibility of making it to the finals.
Fortunately for Solskjaer, both Fred and Scott McTominay are accessible in spite of getting injury issues against Fulham. In any case, it looks bad to risk them tomorrow. Wolves are feeling the loss of some of their main players. Players like Raul Jimenez, Pedro Neto, Otasowie, Otto, and Podence all pass up a great opportunity and will be sidelined.
Santo has effectively affirmed that the very side that took on Everton midweek will take to the field on Sunday. With little to play for, exactly the number of youth players Solskjaer will utilize stays not yet clear.
