Amorim explains United absences at Spurs

Ruben Amorim has provided an insight into the absences of five Manchester United players for this afternoon's Premier League game at Tottenham Hotspur.

In his pre-match interview with Sky Sports, shortly after arriving at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for the 16:30 GMT kick-off, Amorim explained that a mix of illness and fresh injuries have prevented several Reds from being involved in the capital.

The boss began his update by providing further detail on in-form forward Amad - who confirmed on Saturday that he is facing a spell on the sidelines with an issue - before clarifying why defender Leny Yoro plus midfielders Toby Collyer, Kobbie Mainoo and Manuel Ugarte have not made today's squad.
