Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho admits Henrik Mkhitaryan could see action tomorrow night against Bristol City in the Carabao Cup.

Mourinho insists the depth of his squad is reason for the Armenian's absence in recent weeks.

The manager said: "He can. I am making a few changes for the match, not many because Bristol is one of the best team in the Championship and for me now the Championship is not the Championship of five or 10 years ago.

“The Championship is now high quality teams with lots of players that could be playing in the Premier League easily. So we need to take the game really seriously. But I am going to make a few changes. And it's possible Micki is involved.

“At the moment we are playing Mata, Rashford, Lingard or Martial, Lukaku so on the bench being Ibra and one of the other ones, Martial or Rashford and there is no space for everyone because you need balance on the bench too."
