Manchester United are finally back in the Champions League and have arguably been drawn in the toughest group this season. The Red Devils face Paris Saint Germain in the first game, as the Parisians will look to take revenge from the Red Devils. The Manchester Evening News has lately confirmed the squad that has travelled to Paris to face PSG, with some key figures missing.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer would have hoped that he had a full squad to chose from as United play their most important game of the season so far. But it is being reported that the likes of Harry Maguire, Eric Bailly, Mason Greenwood and Edinson Cavani haven’t travelled with the rest of the squad. Maguire and Bailly are United’s best defenders are their absence will surely bother Solskjaer.
Mason Greenwood has also been absent from the squad and was also omitted in the game against Newcastle, which points towards an injury. Edinson Cavani will miss the game, as expected because the Uruguayan hasn’t played in a competitive game from seven months. The likes of Tuanzebe and Facundo Pellistri have travelled with the squad.

Looking at the squad, it is evident that Manchester United will go for a very defensive formation tomorrow, which might benefit the team.
