Ronaldo and Cavani miss Man Utd trip to Man City
Ronaldo and Cavani miss Man Utd trip to Man City
Manchester United striker Cristiano Ronaldo is out of the derby with Manchester City this afternoon.
It is also understood that Edinson Cavani is not part of the matchday squad either, leaving Ralf Rangnick's side very light on options up front.
Marcus Rashford is expected to be deployed down the middle due to the lack of options unless the United boss goes for Bruno Fernandes as a false nine.
Rashford will be given his chance to shine down the middle with both Ronaldo and Cavani out, says The Athletic.
The England international has not scored since the 1-0 win over West Ham United on January 22 but Rangnick insisted the 24-year-old has 'abundant talent'.
