Manchester United head coach Reuben Amorim has issued an update on four players before a clash with Brentford in the Premier League
Amad will miss Manchester United’s Premier League trip to Premier League tomorrow due to the close death of his family. The winger was given a compassionate vacation by United boss Reuben Amorim.
The source for United is unknown as Ivory Coast International remains in the UK while he handles the losses and it is unclear how much time the 23-year-old will need before he returns to the team.
“Richa (Lisandro Martinez) is out. Casemiro is out for the red card. Amado is not here because someone from his family has passed away. We give Amado all the support and understand that he needs to go home,” he said.

Amad began United’s final four Premier League matches and played in a more advanced role as a wingback, similar to his 2-1 victory over Chelsea at Old Trafford last weekend.
The fact that Amad is not forced means that Diogo Dalot, who missed United’s last two games with injuries, is likely to return to the right wing reverse.
Portugal International returned to training on Thursday, but Noussair Mazraoui was ruled out.
“He (Mazrawi) is out too. He won’t be coming back to the international break,” Amorim revealed.
Going further, Mashwas Kuña is expected to have surgery alongside Brian Mbemo as one of the advanced attackers behind Benjamin Sesco for his first start since his hamstring injury.
For Mbeumo, he returned to the club where Amorim spent years giving a passionate verdict at Cameroon International.
“It’s really important to everything he’s doing,” the United boss said. “The light he brings to the dressing room. He’s not the person to talk to, but he’s always there to help us. He runs a lot and is a different threat from last season. I’m happy with Brian.”
As for the other decisions facing Amorim, Manuel Ugarte and Cobby Meinu appear to be competing for the spot alongside Bruno Fernandez, where Casemiro is not available.
