Solskjaer provides Man Utd team news update ahead of West Ham FA Cup clash as Bailly waits on return

Manchester United look set to be without Eric Bailly for their FA Cup fifth-round clash with West Ham on Tuesday, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer expecting the Ivorian defender to join Paul Pogba on a list of absentees.

The Red Devils have seen their World Cup-winning midfielder ruled out of their plans for “a few weeks”, with the in-form performer suffering the most untimely of setbacks.

There is better news on Bailly, who is edging his way back to full fitness after sitting out five games, but a knockout meeting with the Hammers may come too soon for the 26-year-old centre-half.
