Ruben Amorim gives update on Bruno Fernandes and Mason Mount after Man Utd draw v Leeds

Fernandes, Mount and Kobbie Mainoo have been sidelined in recent weeks, and their collective absence has been compounded while Amad, Bryan Mbeumo and Noussair Mazraoui continue to represent their countries at the African Cup of Nations. Harry Maguire and Matthijs de Ligt have also been recent omissions.

United battled to a 1-1 draw away to Leeds United on Sunday, where two of those who do remain in contention in attacking areas currently – Joshua Zirzkee and goalscorer Matheus Cunha – combined for a well-worked equalising goal at Elland Road.

Asked about the possibility of adding to his squad now that the January transfer window has opened, Amorim instead pointed to the return of players already within our ranks.
