Man Utd boss Ten Hag: Lindelof ready to face Sheffield Utd

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag says Victor Lindelof is available for tomorrow's clash with Sheffield United.

The former Sweden captain was instrumental in calling off the midweek Euro qualifier in Belgium at halftime after the death of two away supporters due to a terrorist attack.

Ten Hag said, "It is a terrible situation - sad for the victims and the relatives, and friends of the victims there in Brussels.

"It's a crazy world. Of course, Victor had a problem, it's a bad experience, as Sweden national team, he was the captain, he had to stay in front and give statements but he dealt with it.

"He's exhausted after it. He didn't sleep overnight. He returned and yesterday he was back in training. He dealt with the situation. Our thoughts are with Victor, the victims' relatives and the victims. Victor has energy and is ready to play this game."
