Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has confirmed that captain Bruno Fernandes and Raphael Varane are “doubtful” for the FA Cup clash against Nottingham Forest.
The Red Devils boss did not specify the nature of their injuries but they are set for late fitness tests before the trip to the City Ground.
Harry Maguire has already been ruled out with a knock and he is being assessed ahead of the Manchester derby on Sunday.
Fernandes and Varane are probably likelier to be in contention to face City at the Etihad than Maguire based on ten Hag‘s remarks.
