A similar decision has been communicated by UEFA, meaning the second leg of our UEFA Europa League tie against LASK at Old Trafford on Thursday 19 March will also be postponed.
Academy games and our Women’s Super League fixtures will also be postponed until at least Saturday 4 April.
Clearly this is a rapidly evolving situation as part of collective efforts to combat the spread of coronavirus (COVID-19). We trust that our fans will understand that protection of public health must be the priority.
New dates for our postponed games, and any decision about games subsequent to the current postponement period, will be confirmed as soon as possible, based on discussions with the governing bodies and any further guidance from the UK government.
