Manchester United Handed Major Boost Ahead Of Southampton Clash

Manchester United have been handed a boost ahead of their trip to Southampton with the news that captain Wayne Rooney will be fit to play.



The England international missed the club’s 3-1 win over Liverpool last weekend, aswell as the midweek Champions League defeat at PSV, but is ready to return to action at St Mary’s on Sunday, as per Sky Sports.


Marouane Fellaini deputised up front in the win over Brendan Rodgers’ side, while new boy Anthony Martial was handed his first start for the club in Eindhoven after his substitute heroics against Liverpool at Old Trafford. 


Rooney broke England’s all-time goalscoring record during the international break, scoring the second goal in the 2-0 win over Switzerland at Wembley to take his international goals tally to 50.


The Red Devils forward will be hoping to recreate his international form at club-level against a Southampton side who have registered just one win this season.
