Manchester United will be without Harry Maguire for this weekend’s crunch clash against Chelsea in a major blow for the Red Devils, according to a new report.
The 33-year-old defender was sent-off in controversial fashion in a frantic end to the 2-2 draw with AFC Bournemouth last month.
But United had hoped he would be available for the trip to Stamford Bridge on Saturday evening after an appeal was launched to the FA to overturn the charge of misconduct he received in the aftermath of the red card.
Tweet: “EXCL: Harry Maguire getting a one-game ban as FA uphold charge of misconduct. Means Maguire misses Chelsea trip. #MUFC appealing Lisandro Martinez red card but sense is unlikely to be overturned. Could be a CB partnership at Chelsea combined age 39.”
