Man Utd confirm Lindelof available for Man City blockbuster

Manchester United have confirmed Victor Lindelof is available for Saturday's Manchester derby.

The Swede missed Tuesday's draw with Atalanta after picking up a knock in training.

But the club's website has stated that Lindelof has a clean bill of health ahead of the clash with Manchester City.

It is welcome news for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer after centre-back Raphael Varane injured his hamstring in Italy.

The Red Devils will be without the Frenchman for at least a month.

Solskjaer has adopted a back-three in his last two matches in charge, which means Lindelof could slot alongside Eric Bailly and Harry Maguire for the derby.
