Erik ten Hag has revealed that Wout Weghorst won't be available for tomorrow's Manchester derby after revealing he was not signed in time.

The Red Devils were in a race against time to get the move across the line, after agreeing a deal to sign the Holland striker for the rest of the season.

Ahead of tomorrow's match, the Manchester United manager has admitted that they have not been able to get the deal in time - but insists that it's 'close' to completion.

He also revealed that Diogo Dalot won't be available to play Man City, while they will make a late decision on Anthony Martial's leg injury.
