Manchester United manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, has said that he didn’t include Mason Greenwood in his side’s away Premier League match-day squad to face Watford because the forward tested positive for COVID-19.

Solskjaer stated this before the kick-off of Man United’s clash with Watford on Saturday evening.

Greenwood has been a mainstay in Solskjaer’s starting XI so far this season, having started ten of the Red Devils’ opening eleven Premier League matches.

The 20-year-old star also has four Premier League goals for Man United so far this season.

Speaking before the match to MUTV, Solskjaer explained the reason for Greenwood’s absence.

“Mason has got Covid-19, unfortunately.

“He’s tested positive, so we’ll wait for him to get back,” he said.

Meanwhile, as at the time of filing this report, Man United was losing 1-0 to Watford.

Joshua King scored the goal for Watford against United in the 28 minutes.

Former Manchester United striker, Dimitar Berbatov, has named the team that could “surprise” Arsenal in the Premier League title race.

The Gunners are now six points clear of second-placed Chelsea, thanks to their 4-1 demolition of Tottenham on Sunday.

Mikel Arteta’s men could extend that lead to nine points, when they travel to face the Blues this weekend.

Berbatov has now said he expects Arsenal to be “really tested” over the hectic festive period and says their title credentials will become clearer in the New Year.

“Of course Liverpool are low in the table and Man City are dropping points, but there are other teams like Chelsea who can surprise people,” Berbatov told ESPN.

“Six points is a good cushion but in the Premier League it’s nothing and can go very quickly.”
