Antony ruled out of Manchester United’s Europa League trip to Real Betis

Antony will miss Manchester United’s trip to face Real Betis in the Europa League due to illness.

The Red Devils have named their 21-man travelling party for the last-16 second leg in Spain with the Brazilian winger not included.

After missing training on Wednesday with illness, Antony is also a doubt to face Fulham in the FA Cup quarter-final on the weekend. He has already been named in Brazil’s squad to face Morocco in a friendly later this month.

United have nonetheless been able to welcome back two previously unavailable players as they look to book a place in Friday’s Europa League draw.

Victor Lindelof is back from illness and Marcel Sabitzer has recovered from a knock.

Alejandro Garnacho joins Anthony Martial, Christian Eriksen and Donny van de Beek in the treatment room.

Erik ten Hag could make several changes to his starting line-up with Facundo Pellistri, Anthony Elanga, Tyrell Malacia and Harry Maguire all looking to play.

Full Man United matchday squad to face Real Betis:

  • GK: David De Gea, Tom Heaton, Jack Butland.
  • DEF: Diogo Dalot, Victor Lindelof, Harry Maguire, Tyrell Malacia, Lisandro Martinez, Luke Shaw, Raphael Varane, Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
  • MID: Casemiro, Bruno Fernandes, Fred, Scott McTominay, Marcel Sabitzer.
  • ATT: Anthony Elanga, Facundo Pellistri, Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, Wout Weghorst.
