Solskjaer sweats on the fitness of Maguire & Wan Bissaka ahead Manchester Derby

Manchester United manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is hopeful captain Harry Maguire will be fit enough to feature in Sunday’s Manchester derby.

The Reds host Pep Guardiola side at Old Trafford this weekend.

The 27 years old after rolling an ankle in training on Thursday.

This caused the defender to miss the Reds’ 3-0 Emirates FA Cup win over Derby County.

“Well, he's touch and go because he rolled his ankle but, hopefully, he'll recover quickly,” Ole told reporters at Pride Park in his pre-match press conference to preview the City clash.

“I wasn't going to rest him today, I didn't give him a day off birthday-wise but I hope he'll be fit.”

Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Daniel James are also doubtful after missing the trip to Pride Park.

When asked whether the pair would be fit for Sunday’s test, Solskjaer said it was too early to call.

“I hope so, yes, but none of them have been training yet since the last game, so we've got to look at them on Saturday probably because tomorrow is a recovery day.”
